Deadheading plants as soon as the blooms begin to fade will promote a second bloom.” This is also true for plants with leaves that you harvest for cooking and eating, like chives and basil.
Deadheading flowers with many petals, such as roses, peonies, and camellias prevents them from littering. Deadheading can be done with finger and thumb or with pruning shears, knife, or scissors.
