What is a plant that lives for 2 years called?
Biennials. Biennials fall between annuals and perennials with a two-year life cycle. During their first year, these plants establish leaves, roots, and stems. A biennial plant requires all or part of two years to complete its life cycle. During the first season, it produces leaves and food storage organs. The plant overwinters, and then produces flowers, fruit, and seeds during its second season.
