Quotes About Deadheading

Are you deadheading it back?" the trooper asked, checking the papers. "This time. I always try to bring back a load but the dispatcher was an idiot and didn't hook me up. So yeah, I'm deadheading it back.
~ C.J. Box
One of the least arduous but most productive of gardening jobs, the magic of deadheading never fails to delight me. It was a revelation when the principle was explained to me: that flowers are the attempt by the plant to reproduce itself. So if you cut the heads off before the flower turns into seeds, the plant will continue to flower.
~ Tom Hodgkinson
