Annuals only last one season long. When it frosts or freezes, they die away. Most annuals bloom all season long. Use annuals in your flower beds, in containers, along borders, in window boxes and hanging baskets. Some of the most popular sun loving annuals are petunias, geraniums and marigolds. My favorite shade loving annuals are impatiens, begonias and fuchsia. There are a few tough annuals like pansies and snapdragons that can handle a light frost.
Perennials return year after year in the form of foliage plants and flowers plants. The top portion of the plant may die off during the winter but in the spring new plants a grow from the root system. Most perennials bloom about six weeks often different times throughout the summer so watch pay attention to the tags to mix up bloom times throughout your garden. You can plant perennials until about six weeks before the ground freezes which is usually around mid-November for most of the country.
