biennials
Every-other-year events
Biennials are plants that complete their life cycle over two years—growing leaves the first year, then flowering, producing seeds, and dying the second.
Foxglove, parsley, and hollyhocks are common biennials.
The term also applies to events occurring every two years: The art biennial draws collectors from around the world.
