"The 1st year, they sleep.  The 2nd year, they creep.  The 3rd year,  they LEAP!"

In their first year of growth, most native plants put most of their energy into developing their roots to ensure that they will have ample access to water and nutrients.   In their 2nd year, many native plants will show a bit more above-ground growth, but they really start taking off in their 3rd year.
