| Annuals are plants
that only last for one season and they do not return the following year
as perennials do, although they do drop their own seeds and new plants
may be seen the following year. Annuals grow from seed. Flowering annuals
are used to hide the decaying foliage of perennials, to highlight areas,
to create borders and cutting gardens and share the identical purposes
of perennials but gardeners have the benefit of changing the colors and
textures of annuals very easily every year by using the hundreds of
different annuals available, either as young plants or are started as
seeds indoors or directly sowed into the soil. As a rule, annuals
are less expensive than perennials.
Some annual flowers are edible, such as nasturtiums. There are annuals for sun, shade, dry areas, moist areas and there is an endless list of heights and colors always available when it's time to plant your seeds or garden. Seed tapes are strips of biodegradable paper with imbedded seeds and all you have to do is lay the mat on the ground and water it and a gorgeous annual flower garden will be growing in a short time! |
