What are the difference between annuals and biennials?

Annual (latin> annus, which means “year�) plants are plants that undergo a complete life cycle in just one season. Once they’ve grown to maturity, they would then bear fruits and flowers every year. Well-known annual flowering plants are cosmos, marigolds, petunias and zinnias.

Biennials (biennis, which means 2 years), on the other hand, are plants that are able to complete their life-cycle after 2 seasons or two years. On the first season, they would show a few low-lying leaves. Everything else will then follow on the following season.

Some of these biennials are Canterbury, Foxglove and sweet William. Question is what your garden is for. Is it for your personal gratification, or for your business?

If you want to do gardening for the love of it, then you can have annual, biennial and/or perennial plants. What is important is your want or love of them. However if you want gardening to be your business, it’s much better to stick to annuals than biennials—1 year is better than 2 years.

Annual plants are those that have one life cycle, from seed to flower back to seed. When annuals are grown, removing dying flowers before they go to seed often encourages the plant to produce more buds. Some annuals may have to planted every year, however, others, if allowed to go to seed, will often return the following year.

Biennials take two years to get through their life cycle. Usually the first year, the biennial plant will produce a few leaves, but the second year the patient gardener will be rewarded with the beauty of flowers like hollyhock . When making the plans for a flower garden, remember that any biennials will have to be planted the next year, as well.

This ensures that the garden will have that type of flower every year as the plants alternate between their life cycles. Biennials also regrow through their own reseeding. Don't forget the perennial plants which bloom year after year.

The perennial plant's flowering season is often very short, 6 weeks at the longest. So when deciding on perennials, looking at their regular blooming time is very important if you want to have flowers all summer. One example of a perennial is the daffodil and is a sure sign of spring when it blooms.

But then the flowers disappear until the following year. Something else would need to be planted to fill the void. Perennials regrow yearly because their root system has been established.

There are a number of factors that can affect the garden. The type of soil, the amount of sunlight the area receives, the amount of water the plants require, and the amount of room available are all very important points to consider before making a decision.
