My house is often referred to as 1313 Magnolia Point. This week I decided that I'd define some garden terms that I often use in my articles. And, oh yes, please allow me to apologize for the misspelling in last week's article. I had to look at it twice to make sure I wrote it. A plant that completes its life cycle in a season.
Petunias are an example.
A biennial is a plant that completes its life cycle in two seasons. Cabbage is an example. Deciduous is opposite of evergreen. It's a plant that loses its leaves and foliage in the fall. Sugar maple is an example.
