What do you know about flowers?

Written by: Andi

The other day when we were at Sky Garden Flower Farm we learned about two different kinds of flowers and how their life span affects Sky's flower picking days. 

We first learned about perennial flowers like peonies, coneflowers, and day lilies. Perennial flowers are flowers that live for more than two years. They go dormant in the winter which means temporarily inactive and work to regrow their roots, bulbs, and tubers. After this, they are able to come back year after year. 

Annual flowers are flowers that complete their whole life cycle in one year. Common examples are zinnias and petunias. They have to be replanted each season. These flowers are commonly remembered  because of their bright colors.

Now you know!
