*annual plant*

*an annual plant is a plant that completes its ‘life cycle’ – from ‘germination’ to the ‘production’ of ‘seed’ – within one year*

(…and then dies)

.

Summer annuals germinate during spring or early summer and mature by autumn of the same year

.

Winter annuals germinate during the autumn and mature during the spring or summer of the following calendar year.

.

One seed-to-seed life cycle for an annual can occur in as little as a month in some species, though most last several months. 

.

Oilseed rapa can go from seed-to-seed in about five weeks under a bank of fluorescent lamps.

.

This style of growing is often used in classrooms for education.

.

(many desert annuals are ‘thero-phytes’, because their seed-to-seed life cycle is only weeks and they spend most of the year as seeds to survive ‘dry conditions’)
