Deadheading hasn't been the same since Jerry Garcia died.

That is one gardening task tailor made for people with too much
time on their hands with nothing better to do! Its micromanagement
at its obsessive best!!

I disagree it takes micromanaging. What it takes is a tiny bit of
knowledge.


there's a book that covers this task very well in the "non-micromanaging"
philosophy, "The Well Tended Perennial Garden". The author is a big fan of
shears and or a weedwacker for the job if needed. Plus, she makes Deadhead
jokes too.
