Sumatra Buds

Ripon, WI(Zone 4a)

All the buds on my Sumatra look like this. I've never seen this before. It's not normal, is it?

The flowers seem to be OK though. At least so far.

I had some strange things happening this year never seen before. Since we had so much rain, I blamed it on that even though we have good drainage. I thought perhaps I might have burned some of the tender buds going after the red lily beetle. I think it only happened on the asiatics, but cannot be certain. On a few new plants, the buds failed to mature.
