What is the difference between a perennial and an annual plant?

Answer: Annual plants are plants with a life cycle that lasts only one year. They grow from seed, bloom, produce seeds, and die in one growing season. They then need to be replanted each spring ... The term "perennial" refers to herbaceous plants since woody plants, such as trees, are perennial by definition.

Perennial plants are plants that have a live cycle of more than two years or can live for more than two years while annual crops are crop that only last for one years and are replanted every year. Perennial plants are mostly trees while annual plants are mostly crops.
