Deadheading gazanias

Question

How can you tell if a bloom is just closed for the night or is done blooming and ready to be deadheaded on Gazanias?

Answer 1

Most flowers that close, close UP at the end of the day, the same as before they are opened. When the bloom is done, the petals wilt, sometimes turn brownish, and droop DOWN. It's been awhile since I've had gazanias, but I think they probably do that too.
