Annuals: Culture and Maintenance | Annual flowers live only for one growing season, during
which they grow, flower, and produce seed, thereby
completing their life cycle. Annuals must be set out or
seeded every year since they don’t persist. Some varieties
will self-sow, or naturally reseed themselves. |

Flowering Bulbs: Culture and Maintenance | “Bulbs” is a term loosely used to include corms, tubers,
tuberous roots, and rhizomes as well as true bulbs. This
publication will refer to all of the above as bulbs. Many
vegetables are propagated from or produce edible organs
of these types (e.g., tuber, Irish potato; tuberous root,
sweet potato; rhizome, Jerusalem artichoke; bulb, onion). |

Patriotic Gardens: Red, White, and Blue Native Plants | In 2007, Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE)
developed the America’s Anniversary Garden to help
individuals, communities, and groups commemorate
America’s 400th Anniversary with a signature landscape,
garden, or container planting. These signature gardens
have red, white, and blue color schemes. Although the
commemoration has passed, this guide continues to be
useful for creating a patriotic garden. |
