You can have those flowers blooming endlessly by incorporating both granular and liquid fertilizers into your gardening habits.   Always use granular fertilizers with new plantings and water once per week with a liquid fertilizer.  This gives the flowers an extra bite of vitamins each week that helps  reap the flowering rewards for months to come.

Prune all old plant material back to the new green growth.  Dead, dieing or deformed foliage take as much of the plants energy to support as living parts of the plant.  Use sharp pruning sheers to remove the dead parts of a plant.  After the pruning, fertilize with Nursery Special Fertilizer.

Clean those beds.  Removing all the old leaves, fallen flowers and broken branchesreduces the likelihood of future insect and disease problems.   Insect and disease thrive in leaves, fallen flowers and rotten  branches.   Make sure to discard using a heavy duty trash bag  approximately 6 mil,, this will make sure that when the trash is collected  at your home that the bag does not break. 

Replenish those beds.  Plants require fertilized healthy soil to produce the best results.  Adding soil conditioner to your beds before planting will add the soil nutrients that will produce the best results.  Fast math, 1 bag is needed for every 15 sq. feet.  Or 5 bags for every 5×15 bed area. 

Raising those branches.  Raising your tree branches or canopy has many positive results.  The first noticeable result is appearance, it looks better.  In addition, you can control the growth habit or control its height.  Also, pruning the tree enables more sunlight to the lower level plantings.  Make sure to use gloves and a sharp pair of pruning loppers to make clean cuts. 

Automatic Weeder.  If you do not follow any of the above advice, at least  make sure to use this garden saving measure.  Use Eptam or   Amaze in your garden to  prevent weeds.  1 lbs per 100 sq. feet of bed area will take hours of weeding off your hands.
