Deadheading Roses - A Few Pointers


Cut Off flowers As They Fade
Dead heading roses when the flowers begin to fade will encourage them to produce more flowers and will also enhance the appearance of the plant. Cut off individual flowers as they fade and then after the last flower has bloomed on the stem cut it back to a bud lower down the stem. If you are growing roses that produce hips during late summer do not deadhead the rose at all and let it produce its seed.
