And now I have a basic question that I should take to the salvia forum but it's SO basic that I'm embarrassed to. :-P

I know I have used annual salvia in the past but for the life of me I can't remember what to do with them. I don't recall dead-heading them but surely I should? Some of them are pretty faded and the blooms are already all but gone. It seems like I've always had blooms all summer long on them...should I pinch the unsightly ones off and will they come back?
