Default Deadheading Zinnias?????

c (TOM KAN PA) wrote in message ...
Do Zinnias need to be deadheaded, and if so, how far back do you cut off the
stem that the bloom was on?


Yes, deadhead them. They will come back vigorously for you real soon.
Cut back to where the stem that had the bloom meets up with another
stem, or if it's the first cut you are doing, cut back to perhaps the
2nd or 3rd set of leaves on the new, non branching stem.
