When I grew African Violets I always removed the spent blooms, to me a plant look a lot prettier without a bunch of dead or half dead flowers hanging on .. I always deadhead most flowers when they start looking a bit ratty.

Michelle ... I am computer illiterate and not up to date on most of the abbreviations but I've learned that IMHO means "In my humble opinion."
