Busy Lizzies

Hi all, some of my summer bedding is looking like it's seen better days so I have been clearing it and planting bulbs for the spring. The busy Lizzies are showing no signs of tiredness, in fact they are blooming like it's August :)

I have read somewhere that they are annuals but the info they came with said they will only last one season?

Can anyone confirm please

Thanks

    Annual plants which will only last one season, and I think they are annuals. If you are looking for something to last longer than one season, then you might one to look at perennials or bi-annuals

    Thanks, I think I made it sound I thought annuals and plants lasting only one year were too different thing!

    Thanks for clearing that up :)

    They will go on, but in our climate there is no chance they will survive outside, hence one year only

    Indoors they will go on for ages, but may get leggy due to light / heat etc
