In gardening, what is the meaning of "deadheading" a flower?
I was reading an article on container gardening and reads: "Feed monthly with a balanced fertilizer and Deadhead spent flowers regularly to keep them in bloom." Are we just talking about getting rid old flowers? Or is there any particular form that must be cut flowers in order to encourage more flowers? Thank you!
After a flower has blossomed the energy of the plant will continue to enter this wilted flower to produce a crop of seeds. If you want more flowers than you need to cut or snap off flourishing energy than the rather faded available to encourage the flowers to grow.
