Default Petunias


Hi, a novice gardener here.......... Does anyone dead head their petunias?
If
so, do you pull just the spent bloom? or do you take the base too? and how
often do you deadhead?

TIA

Laura





I deadhead every few days.... I spend a little time in a different part of my
garden dead heading. It happens to be one of my least favorite jobs so I only
do a little at a time. As far as the petunias I usually just pluck the spent
flowers but if it's getting leggy I pinch back about half.
