Re monocarpic (not) A. virginica, etc --- And aren't Kniphofia and
Bromeliads also on the same kind of schedule?

I guess somehow, I "learned" that the terms annual, biennial, perennial
were to be applied only to dicots. Monocots have such different
arrangements for flowering--and if one gets into orchids where the male
and
female flowers can look so different--well...
