Lunaria annua Violet | Honesty | Money Plant
A classic cottage garden biennial grown for both its spring flowers and its iconic, translucent seedpods. Lunaria annua is also known as Honesty or Money Plant, and is a favorite among florists for dried arrangements.
This variety produces charming violet-purple or pure white blooms in spring, followed by decorative flat seedpods that shimmer like silver coins. The plants are easy to grow, self-sow freely, and thrive even in partial shade or poor soil.
Key Features
- Plant type: Biennial (self-seeding)
-
Flower color: Violet
- Height: Up to 90 cm
- Spread: 30 cm
- Flowering period: May to August
- Position: Full sun or partial shade
- Uses: Dried arrangements, autumn decor, cut flower gardens
- Soil: Moist, fertile, well-drained
- Special trait: Tolerates poor soil and shade
Though the flowers are delicate and short-lived, the real treasure lies in the seedpods — each plant can produce 20–30 stems heavily laden with flat, coin-like seed cases. These can be harvested fresh while green or left to mature for a silvery, papery finish.
Sowing Instructions
- Direct sowing: Best sown directly in autumn or early spring in 3 mm deep drills spaced 30 cm apart. Keep soil moist until germination and thin seedlings to 15 cm.
- Indoor sowing: Sow onto loam-based compost; lightly cover with a thin layer of grit. Maintain warmth at 18°C for 6–8 weeks, then cold stratify at 5°C for another 6–8 weeks. Return to warmth to trigger germination. Repeat warm–cold cycle if needed.
- Note: Germination can be slow and erratic — patience is key.
Growing Notes
- Thrives in less-than-perfect spots — including part shade and poor soil
- Avoid excessive feeding or manure
- Minimal maintenance once established
Harvesting & Drying
- Harvest seedheads in late summer to autumn when pods are mature and paper-like
- Peel off the green outer layer to reveal luminous, silvery discs
- To dry: Hang stems upside down in a warm, dark place for 2–3 weeks
Dried seedpods are fragile — handle with care once dried.

Help is on the way and it comes every day !
Format: Kindle
This book contains words that will encourage anyone wanting encouragement, just be willing to see what is set before you contains the Word Of God and His Words are filled with life for those who find them and health to all their flesh. This book really has been a help to my wife and myself. I have found that a word for a certain day spoke the very word of encouragement to me that I really needed that day and these words are more than just someone making suggestions. Perhaps they were written for someone you know or maybe even you yourself, who knows maybe they have come into your grasp for such a time of need as now ? Anyway you judge for yourself, just be encouraged.

A Very Helpful Guide to a Complicated Topic
Format: Kindle
This was a very good and genuinely helpful book. Estate planning and living trusts can feel intimidating, especially when you start hearing legal terminology and worrying about making costly mistakes. What I appreciated most is that this book takes a complicated subject and makes it feel understandable and manageable.
The writing is clear and practical. Rather than assuming prior legal knowledge, it walks you through the process step by step in a way that feels approachable. I especially appreciated the explanations about trustees, beneficiaries, funding the trust, and the practical realities of organizing assets properly. Those details matter, and the book does a good job helping the reader think through them carefully.
The worksheets and ready-to-use materials were also a big plus. They help turn the information into action instead of leaving you wondering what to do next. I found myself feeling much more confident about the overall process by the time I finished.
Another strength is that the book addresses real-life situations that many families face, not just ideal scenarios. Issues like blended families, uneven inheritances, and planning ahead for future complications are discussed in a thoughtful and practical way.
Of course, estate planning is important enough that complicated situations may still benefit from professional advice, especially since laws vary from place to place. But as an educational guide and starting point, I thought this book was excellent and very worthwhile.
If you have been putting off learning about living trusts because it feels overwhelming, this book is a great place to begin.

For anyone considering a living trust now or may in the future
Format: Kindle
I was quite relieved to find this. It is a complicated topic, fraught with fears of things one might miss or mistakes one could make that would be costly. This guide breaks everything down into steps that are easy to understand and follow, with clear explanations for each one. The worksheets along the way are invaluable. I have been working on getting everything together for a living trust for some time and I found this book just in time to get me over the hurdles I'd been confronting. It's worthwhile for anyone to read this, whether currently planning a living trust or thinking ahead to the future.
