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.
Geranium Rozanne is definitely a plant it-ignore it perennial. Alchemilla mollis is also one that blooms and then you can hack it back, deadheading makes no difference as to continuous bloom, but it looks good for a long time even after the flowers have faded. Sedum also look great with no deadheading (I have Starfire and Neon a few others that always look great left alone).
