Lunaria annua

| An old cottage garden favourite, the seedheads of which are often to be seen in dried floral arrangements. Carefully rub the seed pod (silicles) casings off the dried stems to reveal moon-shine like membranes that give this plant its Latin name. A trouble-free plant that will establish itself happily and light up darkish corners, although tolerant of almost any light and soil conditions. These seeds were gathered from plants with particularly rich red-purple flowers, and although I can't absolutely guarantee that they will come true, they always have in this garden! | ||||||||||||
| Sowing and/or growing instructions | ||||||||||||
| Best sown direct. Can be treated either as a hardy annual by sowing in early spring, or sown May to June to produce larger, freely branching plants the following year. |
