I bought some beautiful geraniums, but now the flowers have faded. Do I dead head them?

I would, it makes the plant look better.

With some plants, deadheading can also stimulate them to bloom some more. I'm not sure if this is true for geraniums or not but it certainly doesn't hurt to try.

yes, you'll get more blooms if you deadhead them. Cut it off at the base of the flower stem.
