I have some pots on my patio with various plants in.

Many of the plants are looking sad. The flowers are opening but are brown, limp and soggy.

Osteospermum for example.

We have had LOTS of rain recently. approx 1 inch (25mm) per day for about a week.

Could it be that the plants are simply over watered?

I guess I need to dead head and hope better flowers come through. WOuld that be the best plan of action.
