With the return in popularity of dried flowers people are once again growing good old fashioned Honesty. I remember them in my grandmother's garden and certainly had dusty old vases of them around my childhood house growing up!

By late 2019 we were seeing their silvery seed heads show up in big fancy wedding designs and demand was outstripping supply. This is a true biennial that needs a winter chill before it will flower and make pods. These large transplants will have received that chill, and should be ready to flower in their first season.

Lunaria tends to reseed around the garden, which I view as a benefit. The pods start green and have to be cleaned to expose the silvery inside. Or they can be used fresh in their green form. An excellent addition to fresh or dried arrangements and wreaths!
