Long-day Plant



A long-day plant is a plant the does not need a lot of hours of darkness. These plants tend to thrive in the summer (when the days are long). The photo above is of lettuce, an example of a long-day plant. This lettuce head was once sitting on the fields of California, enjoying the hot California sun. Wheat, barley, turnip, and carnations are all long day.
