Name: Big Bill Livonia Michigan (Zone 6a) If you need to relax, grow plants!!
When the flower bearing stalk is 95% dead, I cut it back to a point 2-3" below that. They typically branch for me at the leaf junction just down the stem from there.
It seems to take about 4 weeks before those side bloom stalks flower. They typically have less flowers.
