Question

Among the following, which one is the perennial vegetable?

• A. Artichoke
• B. Celery
• C. Knol-khol
• D. Leek

Hint:

Perennial vegetables, like artichokes, asparagus, and rhubarb, are great for gardens because you plant them once and they come back year after year. Most common vegetables are annuals or biennials grown as annuals.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Define perennial plants. A perennial plant lives for over two years, typically regrowing each spring from its roots.
Step 2: Categorize the vegetables by life cycle.

Artichoke: A true perennial, the globe artichoke yields edible flower buds for multiple years from a single plant.
Celery: A biennial, completing its life cycle in two years, but commonly grown as an annual.
Knol-khol (Kohlrabi): A biennial, usually cultivated as an annual.
Leek: Also a biennial, typically grown as an annual.
Therefore, artichoke is the only perennial vegetable listed.
