Deadhead pinching

DO I HAVE TO DO THIS?

No, but it’s a great way to keep your plant fresh and blooming for the whole season.

Flowers are formed so the plant can produce seeds - to propagate. When the flowers mature and eventually start to wither, your plant will focus its energy on producing seeds instead of more flowers. But if you regularly remove the spent flowers before they go to seed, your plant will continue setting more flowers.

By removing withered leaves and dead plant parts from the plant / pot, you also reduce the risk of pests.
