What is happening to my Catt?

[Jenascrich]

Good afternoon! Does anyone know what is happening to my catt? I lost one bud from the same spike but one of them obviously survived and bloomed although one of the bloom's leaves is bent and broken. Any suggestions on how to treat it so it does not spread?


Thank you!!

Looks like mechanical damage.

Do you have wildlife such as birds, children, deer or squirrels that may be bothering it? Clumsy husband perhaps?

Seriously, there are numerous things that could cause this. It seems to be outdoors (?), so it could even be caused by weather-related damage. While it has unfortunately damaged a nice bloom, I doubt it will be repeated much.

Thank you for your help.
