HOW TO DEADHEAD

marigolds

Marigolds are vibrant annual flowers that are often planted near the vegetable garden to deter pests. 

If you deadhead marigolds, they will bloom all summer and into fall! 

Deadheading marigolds correctly will give you a fuller plant and more blooms. 

You will need a clean pair of scissors or garden shears for this task and garden gloves. 

Many gardeners simply pop off the end of the marigold flower, but that won't give you fuller plants with more blooms....
