Detailed explanation-1: -Annual plants complete that cycle in one growing season. Biennials require two seasons to complete their life cycle and die. Perennial plants live on for many years, flowering every year.
Detailed explanation-2: -So, what’s the difference? Perennial plants regrow every spring, while annual plants live for only one growing season, then die off. Perennials generally have a shorter blooming period compared to annuals, so it’s common for gardeners to use a combination of both plants in their yard.
Detailed explanation-3: -Perennials, on the other hand, live for three or more growing seasons. They are less work than annuals because they grow back each year from roots that go dormant in the winter. They will be around from year to year, so they put their energy into growing strong roots instead of growing lots of flowers like annuals do.
Detailed explanation-4: -The annual plants die annually. The perennial plants shred their top portion annually. They must be replanted every year. They can regrow.
Detailed explanation-5: -The main difference between annual and perennial plants is that the annual plants live for one growing season whereas perennial plants live for two or more growing seasons.
