Dead Heading
Dead Heading: A form of pruning used on small to medium flowering shrubs to remove
spent flowers. This is a common method used on Roses. The practice of "deadheading" is
also a type of pinch pruning: it removes spent flowers before they begin to set
seed, to concentrate a plant's energy on continued flower production, for the
current year or the following year, as when lilacs are dead-headed after flowering.
