Plant Type: Annual

Annuals are plants that complete their entire life cycle – from seed germination to flowering and producing new seeds – all within a single growing season, and then die. They are fantastic for providing an explosion of vibrant color and filling in gaps in garden beds and containers throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Because they typically bloom profusely for an extended period, annuals are perfect for gardeners wanting continuous and showy displays. While they need to be replanted each year (unless they self-seed), their versatility and a wide range of colors, forms, and tolerance for various conditions make them a popular choice for adding instant impact to any garden space.
