garden perennial
Comes back yearly
A garden perennial is a plant that lives for more than two years and returns each growing season without replanting.
Unlike annuals, which complete their life cycle in one season, perennials die back in winter and regrow from their roots in spring: Hostas and daylilies are reliable garden perennials.
The term distinguishes cultivated ornamentals from wild perennial species.
