annual flowers
One-season garden plants
Annual flowers are plants that complete their entire life cycle—germination, flowering, seed production, and death—within a single growing season.
Gardeners plant them each year for continuous blooms: Marigolds and petunias are popular annuals.
Unlike perennials, they don't return from the roots, though some reseed themselves.
