Special Care
Deadheading is not required, so you can leave flowers in place as long as they appeal to you. For cut flowers, cut in the morning once flowers have fully colored. To dry flowers, hang upside down out of direct sunlight for about 3 weeks until stems are dry and crisp enough to snap. Dried flowers are fragile, handle gently.
