    I'm new to this, so please forgive me. I have some annuals and wasn't sure which should be deadheaded to promote blooming through the summer.

    Salvia
    Celosia
    Petunia
    Marigolds
    Ageratum

    Thanks!

    I only grow marigolds of those - marigolds should be deadheaded to promote more flowers.

    I dead head everything. A flowers plants mission in life is to set seed. If you do not deadhead you allow it to produce seed!
