They have finished flowering for the season. You can give them fertilizer now, according to the article below. They are short-lived perennials, but if you experience frost during the winter and want to extend them into next season, be sure to put them in a container and bring them inside near a sunny window. They will need little water. Many just treat them as annuals unless they live in a frost free area.
