Excerpt from Field and Woodland Plants Again, when studying plants for the purpose of identification, it is Often important to note whether the root is annual, biennial, or perennial that is, whether the root lives for one season only, lives throughout the winter, and supports the plant for a second season, or retains its life for an indefinite number of years. Most of the roots that live over one season are of a eshy nature, thick and tapering, or tuberous, and contain more or less stored nourishment which assists the new growths that are called forth by the warmth and light Of the early spring sun.
