are daisies annuals or perrenials? do you have to let annuals die to keep growing them?

Question

i am growing multiple annual plants, like tomatoes and onions. if i bring them inside during the winter, will they continuously grow or do i have to let them die out during the winter so they will flourish. also, i am letting my toddler grow daisies, if they die will they grow again next year?

Answer 1

i always over winter my plants in my garage! and yes ur daisies will come back if u let them go to seed! stop deadheading towards the end of the growing season and this will happen naturally!

' if I had a HUGE plot of annuals would at least something come back the next year? ' Depends on the 'annual'. Some plants are regarded as annuals in certain zones because it gets too cold for them to sustain themselves, but may grow as perennials in warmer ares or if they had adequate over-wintering (like in a greenhouse). Peppers are a good example of this. They will indeed continue to grow and produce fruit for years as long as they are kept up properly. Others have a set biology that makes them die as soon as they produce seed. But you can keep them going longer than normal if you remove the flower heads before they go to seed. 'can you breed an annual plant with a perrenial to make it a perrenial?' Not that I am aware of, but biotechnology is splicing plants left and right, so it's possible it would be that way some day. Not now though. 'is plant breeding something that average people can just do or does it take some serious stuff?' Average people can, but it takes above average determination and skills. It's definitely easy to play around and create your own crosses (melons are an interesting and easy one to do), but without certification and labs and some dangerous substances, you won't be able to market it or substantiate your claims in any meaningful way. It would purely be a hobby. Some plants are much easier to work with than others.

Answer 3

Perennial Daisy

Answer 4

Daisies Perennials

Answer 5

The natural cycle of annuals is to germinate, grow, bloom, form seed and die. This is usually within one year - hence their name. Perennials (I believe daisies are in this category) generally have another form of reproduction in addition to seeds, such as bulbs, division, cuttings, and will last several years, if all goes well, such as nothing eats them and the climate is suitable. There are also biennials - their cycle spreads over two years; I would put onions in this category. I don't think there would be enough light in the house for tomatoes. If the daisies die back with the change of season, they will probably come back next year. If they die for another reason, they may be dead rather than dormant.

Answer 6

There are both annual and perennial daisies . Bringing them in won't work , without a lot of manipulation (not worth it ) . Even if you could create adequate conditions(not likely ) , most are day-length sensitive, so would require some manipulation of photoperiod to bloom (not worth it, unless you are commercially growing cut flowers)

Answer 7

You should let the annuals die. Annuals are only good for one year. They regrow the next year from the seeds they produced. Daisies are perennials and will come back year after year if taken care of.

Answer 8

Daisies are basically perennial weeds and will come up year after year. Annuals die off in the winter and must be replaced every year, if left outside. Beyond that, I don't know. Next fall, get your toddler some crocus, daffodil, and tulip bulbs (quite cheap) and plant them. They'll come up in the spring and he'll/she'll be thrilled.

Answer 9

this question is specific to your growing zone. i live in an area where some perennials die each year and therefore become annuals. talk to your local nursery or Home Depot garden center. your toddler can experience a garden with more than just daisies.

Answer 10

Daisies are biannuals. They don't bloom the first year when planted from seed. They will bloom the second season and reseed.

You cannont overwinter tomatoes. Annuals must be replanted yearly either from seed or new plants.
