Biennial Vegetable Seeds

Plant biennial vegetable seeds for a rewarding two-season harvest. Our biennial vegetable seeds deliver a harvest in year one and seeds in year two.

A biennial vegetable is a plant that completes its life cycle over two growing seasons. In the first year, the plant grows vegetatively, developing roots, leaves, and stems. After surviving the winter in a dormant state, it produces flowers, fruits, and seeds in its second year before dying.

Many vegetables we treat as annuals are actually biennials. This is because gardeners typically harvest them after the first year for their roots, leaves, or heads, and pull the plant before it flowers
