What is the difference between annuals and perennials flowers and shrubs? Annuals & Perennials;
Plants can be classified as either annual, biennial, or perennial.Annual plants live for only one growing season, during which they produce seeds, then die. Familiar annual plants include impatiens, zinnias, and sunflowers. Biennial plants, such as some types of foxglove, live for two growing seasons before setting seed and dying. The term perennial is reserved for plants that live for more than two years.
What is the difference between coniferous and deciduous trees?
Most conifers have needle-like leaves such as the fir, pine, spruce and larch. Some, like cedar, cypress and juniper trees, have scale-like leaves and do not shed individual leaves, but shed short branches bearing one or more years growth.
Deciduous means "falling off at maturity" or "tending to fall off", and it is typically used in order to re-fer to trees or shrubs that lose their leaves seasonally (most commonly during autumn) and to the shedding of other plant structures such as petals after flowering or fruit when ripe.
