Expert Sarah Raven offers some fun alternatives to parsley and thyme. By Hannah Stephenson.
For example, most trees regain the ability to grow during winter but do not initiate physical growth until the spring and summer months. The start of dormancy can be seen in perennial plants through withering flowers, loss of leaves on trees, and halting of reproduction in both flowering and budding plants.
Plants are annual or biennial, growing from taproots. The stems are upright growing to a height of 30 to 120 cm (12 to 47 in). The flowers are sessile and produced in verticillasters. The calyx is tubular-campanulate shaped and 6 to 8 mm (0.24 to 0.31 in) long with broad triangle shaped teeth.

Others in such species have the potential to grow taller in ideal conditions. For longevity, most shrubs are classified between perennials and trees. Some only last about five years in good conditions.
