Here are a couple pics of varying degrees of RoundUp poisoning. Fortunately, the plants fully recovered and bloomed normally in subsequent years when they were not subjected to RoundUp exposure again.

This first pic is of the IB 'Bit of Chocolate'. The bloom in the middle shows pretty much normal color and flower form. The bloom on the right shows moderate color bleaching and some flower deformity. The bloom on the left shows almost total color bleaching and extreme deformity. It's easy to tell onto which rzs I accidentally dripped RoundUp while using a small paintbrush to try to apply RoundUp to dandelions growing within the center of the clump.
