Biennial

updated Dec 03, 2008 by Nick Thorp

Plants that fall under the category of a biennial life cycle take two growing seasons to fully develop and bloom. During the first year the plants will grow leaves, roots, and stems, which will become rosettes. Unless warm or hot weather conditions exist, biennials will enter a stage of dormancy, almost like a plant hibernation, during the winter. Come the following spring, the plant will begin to grow again, and fully develop and flower, and in the case of vegetables and fruits give bloom to edible produce. Like annuals, biennials will die at the end of the flowering stage and leave seeds behind so that the a new plant will germinate and begin the two year life cycle over again.
