Q.Remove dead flowers or let them fall off naturally
I have a night blooming cereus cactus in my front courtyard. It’s my pride and joy. It has given me more blossoms this year than ever before.
My question is, can I remove the dead blossoms everyday or should I wait until they completely turn black and fall off on their own? Am I hurting the cactus by snapping off the dead blossoms.

Dead heading will help promote flowering for a longer period of time.
