Cutting Flowers
I'm a little confused about when it is appropriate to cut flowers. In
particular, I planted what's called a "Tickseed" Coreaopsis Grandiflora (according to the label). It's a flowering perennial with golden flowers and it's already flowering. Should I wait for the flower to wilt or should I catch the flower in full bloom and cut it? I'd like to have this thing bloom all summer long if possible. I have a few other perennials like this too. Also, is this what you've been referring to as "Deadheading?" It says in the planting instructions: Deadheading spent blooms promotes flowering. So I assume that means cutting the dead flowers but I'm not sure and I'm getting tired of learning through mistakes. |
