Cut These Plants Back NOW for More Summer Blooms! #gardening #pruning #gardenmaintenance

Spring flowers are beginning to fade, but that doesn't mean the garden show is over. In today's garden maintenance video, I'm deadheading and cutting back several favorite perennials to encourage fresh growth and more blooms later this summer. We're working on: 🌸 Bee Balm 🌸 Catmint 🌸 Pink Profusion Salvia 🌸 Pugster Amethyst Butterfly Bush 🌸 Veronica 🌸 Red Hot Poker 🌸 Baptisia I also move some sweet potato vine to give it more room to spread and transplant bee balm that was crowding a Glow Pop Japanese Holly. If you've wondered what plants should be cut back after their spring bloom cycle, I'll show exactly what I'm doing in my Georgia garden and why. What plants are you deadheading or cutting back right now? #gardening #deadheading #chelseachop #gardenmaintenance #perennialgarden #summerblooms #flowergarden
