"IMO, if you want certain plants, you either have to be willing to dead head or pull seedlings...just part of the gardener's life."Marge, I agree. My experience or mind view is after having watched two wonderful gardens decline because of the ill health of the owners. What used to be doable, no longer is; and the older I get, I plant for less deadheading. I also am hesitant on installing plants that bloom for a short time and require much hand work.
Gardener's lives should, to a small measure also include the time to sit down on the bench with a cup of tea or glass of wine. Time reserved to watch the sunrise or sunset. Instead all too many gardens become the masters of the owners, not the other way around.
Out come the catnip and ALL the Meconopsis -- Welsh Poppy, sold to these folks with a chirpy name I have forgotten.
