Annual plants typically are those with the following characteristics:

• They have brightly colored flowers, which help attract pollinators such as insects.
• The flowers have an aromatic and sweet fragrance, which also helps attract pollinators more efficiently.
• They grow and flower rapidly when they reach full maturity.

annual, any plant that completes its life cycle in a single growing season. The term is usually applied to herbaceous flowering plants in which the dormant seed is the only part of an annual that survives from one growing season to the next.

Petunia. Petunias are an old-fashioned favorite that come in every color imaginable from white to pink to purple, and some even have stripes! They're a pollinator favorite. Newer types don't have to be deadheaded, or have spent blooms removed, in order to bloom all summer long.

Annuals are plants that complete their life cycle in one year. They germinate, grow, bear fruits and die off within an year. Generally, all herbs and plants belonging to the grass family exhibit this type of life cycle. Mustard, watermelon, corn, lettuce wheat, are a few examples of annual plants.

So, what's the difference? Perennial plants regrow every spring, while annual plants live for only one growing season, then die off. Perennials generally have a shorter blooming period compared to annuals, so it's common for gardeners to use a combination of both plants in their yard.

The best time to water plants is in the morning or evening. Morning watering is actually preferable to evening watering as the plant has time to dry before the sun goes down. At night, water tends to rest in the soil, around the roots, and on the foliage, which encourages rot, fungal growth, and insects.

The bottom line: Water deeply one or two times a week instead of short spurts every other day, said Savio and professional gardener Lauri Kranz of Edible Gardens L.A. and author of “A Garden Can Be Anywhere.”
