The spent blooms don't look too bad to me, they kind of look pink. I do dead head them, though.
GardenGate magazine sent a sample issue a while back, and there was an article about deadheading which said they'd rebloom. They do seem to keep making little buds, so I keep after 'em. At least they're easy to do by hand.

They remind me of shrubs too, when they come up in the spring. Like one skinny branch..
