I was looking through the raws, and I found that all DF standard (non-modded) above ground plants have no [GROWDUR:] token in their entry yet all the below ground plants do.  How does the game know how long they should grow?

Some tags in the game, when missing, just default to some particular value. So all of the above-ground plants (or other plants missing GROWDUR) will grow at the same default rate. I forget what the rate is, and the wiki doesn't seem to list it, that I can find.

Ah, okay. I had a feel that was what happened. 

Does anyone happen to know what the default [GROWDUR] is?

There's way to find out. With some math I concluded that 1 day is equivalent to [GROWDUR:12]. Plant an above-ground, uh, plant and count the amount of days after it mature, multiply by 12 and voila! You have default [GROWDUR] for plants who miss it.

I would do it myself but my better PC is in repairs, and the one I'm on now is just crap.

EDIT: In case that you don't believe, here's the math:

Season lasts for a GROWDUR of 1008. One month have 28 days, so:

28x3 = 84. 1008/84 = 12.

Conclusion: GROWDUR:1 is equivalent to 2 hours of a day.

Examples:
One week is GROWDUR:84
One month is GROWDUR:336
Z days is GROWDUR:(Zx12)
