You've enjoyed the first flush of spring blooms, and noticed the blossoms beginning to fade. 
It's time for a haircut! 
Yes, pansies are famous for requiring dead heading, but they are not alone! 
My experience with most plants has been- the more you cut, the more you get!


So, grab your clippers, a trash bucket, and get to work.


Here are just a few plants that need a trim:

Knockout roses

Hydrangeas

Gardenias

Any herbs beginning to flower

Zinnias

Marigolds

Snapdragons

Ornamental sage/Salvia

Nasturtiums- cut the flowers & enjoy at your bedside

Parsley

Sweet William



See you.
