Annuals and perennials are also great for different purposes and different garden types. Aul Cervoni is helping us break down the difference between annual vs. perennial plants, in addition to ...
Perennials cut down on the work of planting (and some provide great ground cover) while annuals adds long-lasting beauty and longer bloom times. Having a variety of plants also provides habitat ...
The differences in broadleaf weeds' structure and growth habits make them easy to distinguish from narrow-leaved weedy grasses. [5] Most broadleaf weeds have leaves with net-like veins and nodes that contain one or more leaves, and they may have showy flowers, [6] while grassy weeds appear as a single leaf from a germinated seed. [7]
These are annual or perennial herbs or subshrubs. While some of the better-known species are aquatic plants, most are terrestrial. [5] They take many forms, from prostrate to erect to floating. The leaves are oppositely arranged. The inflorescence is a spike or a rounded head occurring in the leaf axils or the ends of branches.
Urochloa species are annual or perennial grasses, most lacking rhizomes. The inflorescence is a branching panicle, and the plant reaches about a meter in height. [14] The plants are bisexual [14] and the flowers are fleshy, with 3 anthers. [15] Some species have a prominent vein in the center of the leaf. [14]
Perennial geraniums have a spicy scent that keeps deer and rabbits at bay. These low-growing beauties bloom in late spring to early summer. They spread rapidly and do best in part sun.
Erosion control: Because plant materials (stems, crowns, etc.) can remain in place year-round, topsoil erosion due to wind and rainfall/irrigation is reduced [11]; Water-use efficiency: Because these crops tend to be deeper and more fibrously-rooted than their annual counterparts, they are able to hold onto soil moisture more efficiently, [12] while filtering pollutants (e.g. excess nitrogen ...
They are annual or perennial plants, mostly aquatic and growing in still or slow-moving water up to 0.5 metres (20 in) deep. The species vary greatly in size, with small species only 5 centimetres (2 in) tall, while others can reach 5 metres (16 ft) in height.
