Egyéves

Egyéves is a Hungarian term that translates to "annual" in English, referring to plants that complete their life cycle within a single growing season. This means they germinate, grow, flower, produce seeds, and die within approximately one year. The term encompasses a wide variety of plants, both herbaceous and flowering, that are commonly cultivated in gardens and agriculture. Examples include many common vegetables like lettuce and radishes, as well as popular annual flowers such as marigolds, zinnias, and petunias. Unlike perennial plants, which live for multiple years, or biennial plants, which take two years to complete their life cycle, one-year plants rely on their seeds to propagate for subsequent generations. Gardeners often choose annuals for their vibrant and continuous blooms throughout the summer months, as well as for their flexibility in garden design, allowing for seasonal changes in color and plant arrangements. Their relatively short lifespan also makes them a good choice for areas where plants might be affected by harsh winters, as new plants are easily established each spring.
