Annuals and perennial flowers

Virtually every gardener knows that plants are annual and perennial. The first is enough just one season to grow, sow seeds and finish their existence. Perennial plants are able to grow in one place more than one year.

The choice of the type of flower plant is the preference of each gardener. Each species has its advantages and disadvantages.

Annual plants, most often, love those gardeners who prefer to create new compositions annually. Also, these flowers are great for decoration vases, containers and other "mobile beds." Such plants are unpretentious, and in the opinion of many lovers bloom more brightly and beautifully.

Perennial flowering has its pros and cons. The first can be attributed to their stationarity. Having chosen a suitable place once, and having decided on a design, you can no longer worry about the beauty of your clubs every warm season.

Perennial plants, unlike annuals, need more care. Such flowers have to endure harsh winters. That is why such plants must be carefully monitored. It is necessary to apply fertilizing and fertilizers in time, as well as to cover the flowers before hibernation.

One more minus of perennial flowering can be considered their aggressiveness. If there is another plant next to them, then it can die in a short time. Perennials try to capture as much space as possible. But such behavior can be minimized; it is enough to protect their growth zone with a curb or other insurmountable obstacle.
