Some common types of plants that are good for gardens include annuals, perennials, shrubs, vines, trees and ground covers. Each type of plant has its own unique characteristics and can be used in different ways within a garden. Annuals bloom and die quickly, while perennials may live longer and provide more foliage and flowers throughout the growing season. Shrubs add height and structure to your garden. Vines climb up trellises or walls and create an interesting look. Trees bring texture and shade to your garden. Groundcovers spread out and fill in empty spaces between other plants.
