Zadabelle's Perennials

Perennials

Perennials are plants that live for three of more years. By the broadest definition, they include flowers shrubs, trees, etc. and can sometimes live for hundreds of years. Most perennial flowers are referred to as "herbaceous perennials" because they lack woody stems. Trees and shrubs are referred to as woody perennials" because they do have woody stems and/or trucks.

The tops of herbaceous perennials often die in the fall, but the roots survive the winter and send up a new growth during the spring. Some herbaceous perennials grow rosette foliage ( small leaves that grow along the base of the plant, similar to what biennials grow) after the stem dies off.

Perennials can be further divided into evergreen and deciduous. Perennials that keep their foliage all year round are evergreen perennials. Deciduous perennials will lose their foliage during the fall or winter and grow it back during the spring.
