Default Canna lilies

First of all canna are NOT lilies, and once the blooms are spent, if your
not going to collect the seeds you can cut the stalk off down bellow the
flower head and the stalk with leaves will keep on feeding the rhazome for
the next stalk that'll grow with it's blooms on it.

Does it make any difference to "deadhead" the blooms of these lilies ?
Does it promote new blooms ? I remove the wilted blooms, but should I
also cut off the seed like buds in which the blooms are embedded ? Hope
I make sense ? Thanks !
