Deadheading Bee Balm for Continuous Summer Blooms
Deadheading bee balm throughout the summer prolongs its blooming period, keeps the plant neat, and promotes healthier growth by redirecting energy from seed production to new flower buds. It is best to deadhead regularly once flowers fade, using sharp pruning shears, and can also help prevent powdery mildew and unwanted reseeding. The process is simple and can be incorporated into regular garden maintenance for more vibrant and extended blooms.
