we have a geranium plant that probably needed to be deadheaded a WHILE ago.. however I didn't know about this until I came to this forum.. I also thought deadheading them anytime was fine.. however I found out you need to do this before they make the seeds.. The blooms on the geraniums were very dried out.. but some WEREN't making seeds yet. however it has been about 2-3 weeks and I do not see ANY blooms at ALL.
Cut flowers, whether bought-in or from the garden, can be composted. Deadheaded flowers can the garden can be thrown into the compost heap too â though the usual provisos apply regarding disease (donât compost anything thatâs diseased â it not be broken down in the composting cycle and could reinfect your garden again).
