Rain damaged campanula

I have several large clumps of campanula and following on from the heavy rain and hail last week the flowers have shrivelled and the plants are flattened. Should I cut away at the damage (the centres have survived better) or just leave them to recover on their own? They do look a sorry mess. They were due for a thinning out this autumn anyway.

If you cut those stalks right down, they may well flower again.
I agree, there is nothing to lose by cutting them down. It will re-invigorate them, and as Lyn says, may well give you some more flowers.
Good Luck.
Thank you both. WHEN it stops raining again I will do as you suggest. Thanks again Sue
