I think you would have time to replant. Your growing season is longer there.

Oh, how horrible! Just a thought ... plants are so resilient. It looks like they might have a little life left in them. Why not let them recover?

Oh my goodness. So sorry. The weather this year has just been so destructive. We lost alot of hay due to straight line winds this year too.

I think you may have some luck with them if the weather stays OK for you - give it a try before digging in. All the best.

This is sad to see, and I am so sorry it happened, but I would plant again now! You obviously love to garden, so don't let the storm defeat you. It is not too late to plant some things, and maybe it would lift your spirits. Good luck in whatever you decide to do.

Is that hail damage or wind, or a combination of elements? Looks like a hoard of locusts came through. I feel for you. It is so sad to have such beautiful planting results and see them destroyed in a blink of an eye.
