FAQs:

• What exactly is an annual plant? Annual plants are garden superstars that complete their entire life cycle – from seed to bloom to new seeds – all within a single growing season. After they've produced their seeds, the plant naturally dies, making way for new growth next year.
• Why should I choose annuals for my garden? Annuals are perfect for delivering instant and continuous color throughout the spring, summer, and fall until the first frost. They offer incredible flexibility, allowing you to change your garden's look and color scheme every year. They're also fantastic for filling in gaps, creating vibrant container displays, and attracting pollinators.
• Are annuals easy to care for? Yes, many annuals are quite easy to care for! They generally need consistent watering, especially during dry spells, and benefit from regular feeding to fuel their continuous blooming. Deadheading (removing spent flowers) will often encourage even more blooms.
• Where are the best places to use annual plants? Annuals are incredibly versatile, bringing vibrant, season-long color to your garden. They're perfect for stunning garden beds, adding cheer to containers and window boxes, overflowing from hanging baskets, and quickly filling bare spots with life.
• Do I need to replant annuals every year? Yes, since annuals complete their life cycle in one season, you will need to replant them each spring. Some annuals may "self-seed" – dropping seeds that sprout new plants the following year – but it's not guaranteed, and consistent color usually comes from fresh plantings.
• What's the difference between an annual and a perennial? The main difference is their lifespan! Annuals live for just one growing season, providing intense, season-long color before dying. Perennials live for multiple years, often returning to bloom year after year from the same rootstock, though their bloom period might be shorter than many annuals.
