Yes, any plant that has a life cycle longer than two years would be considered a perennial plant, although the term is more often used in reference to herbaceous (soft stemmed) plants than to woody plants. A plant that lives only a single year is called an annual - a bean plant for instance, which must be replanted from seed each year. A plant that grows and vegetates in the first year, then flowers, seeds and dies in the second year (such as the carrot plant) is called a biennial or biannual. A plant that continues to grow and produce seeds year after year is called a perennial.
A biennial budget is a financial plan that covers a two-year period, allocating funds for government programs and services over that timeframe. This approach contrasts with annual budgets, which are planned for one year.

However, it may also complicate adjustments to funding in response to changing economic conditions or emerging needs.

Here is an example of the term annual -: " My birthday is annual because it comes once a year." so basically you use the term annual for things that come yearly.
Non seasonal flowering could mean two things: The plant is flowering outside of its normal flowering period. For example where Chrysanthemums are "forced" to flower outside of summer. Another meaning could be with respect to the term "seasonal"; annual plants are sometimes called seasonal, so non-seasonal plant could mean that its a perennial plant.
