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!
