I have two of these guys for five years now and have always looked great .This year they are short, blooming and only about 18 inches high.Does not look like karl foerster at all.We had a very wet spring and flooding this year thinking this could be the problem.Any ideas

    It could very well be the wet conditions. KF is a cool season grass, and if its spring growing season was hampered by excessively wet conditions (flooding especially), growth could be stunted. It should in no way affect them for the next growing season.
