To remove spent blooms, gently grasp the flower stem just below the wilted flower head and pinch or cut it off using clean garden scissors or pruners. This process, known as deadheading, encourages the plant to redirect its energy towards new growth and can promote further blooming. Be sure to remove any brown or unhealthy foliage as well for overall plant health. Regular deadheading keeps plants looking tidy and can extend their blooming period.
