What is the fastest spreading perennial?
Russian Sage This perennial shrub can grow and spread quickly. It has grayish-green leaves and flowers in stunning shades of lavender or blue. Plant Russian sage in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Russian sage needs full sun for optimal growth,” says Tammy Sons, founder and CEO of TN Nursery. Bush sage, meadow sage, and Russian sage are all stunning, flowering perennial plants that happen to be drought-tolerant, says Iappini. They’re a great way to add visual interest to your landscape and help to provide food for hummingbirds and other pollinators.
Are marigolds perennials?
Annual vs. Perennial. In general, marigolds are considered tender perennials in warmer climates (usda zones 9-11) but are usually grown as annuals in cooler climates. This classification is based on their ability to survive the winter months. Petunias are typically grown as annuals, meaning they complete their life cycle in one growing season and do not come back year after year. However, in some warmer climates, petunias may survive the winter and re-bloom the following spring, acting more like perennials.Perennial plants are those with a lifespan that lasts at least three years, though they can live significantly longer as well. Perennial foliage may die back during the winter months but will regrow from dormant roots the next season.Annuals complete that cycle in one growing season, whereas perennials live on for three years or longer. But, if you begin studying the labels on your new plant or seed packet purchases, you’ll discover many twists on this basic definition.
