Thanks for the advice Daisy. That will give me the motivation to fertilize a second time this Spring. I did also try cutting back watering a bit last Summer after they went into hibernation and maybe I cut back too much. Also I didn't fertilize last Fall and I usually do but I have done that before and it didn't usually impact this much.
I will go back to a 5-10-10 fertilizer. And start fertilizing twice in the Spring and once in the Fall. I think my aging garden needs it!
