What plants are they?

You can't go wrong just cutting off the flower heads, and whether they will flower again this year depends on what they are.

Don't know what it is then, but dead heading is usually a good idea unless you are saving the seed. Just cut the flowering spikes though, not the rest of the plant.

Sorry steragram can't put PIC on this notepad won't do it iv tried...OK I will just cut heads off and leave the long stalks yes ....

No, that's not what I meant, you can cut the flower stalks right to the base. I've been wondering if they are perhaps some sort of potentilla? There are so many kinds but the flowers are rather strawberry shaped, thoughj mosdt of them are shades of yellow there are a few orange and red ones.
