Re: Invader

Dear Susan,

Yes, of course I want seeds for our exchange, because it is a gentle invader. And plants for shade are not so numerous. Annies' Annual say that they are true from seed, but I am not surprised by what you say, because variegation is rarely transmitted by seeds.
Thank you for the offer.

Here is information about Lunaria annua variegata, "money plant" from Annie's Annuals, a Bay Area nursery. As it says, I have found that it re-seeds easily but is easy to pull out where not wanted. Mine blooms with lavender flowers, not white.

Lunaria annua 
'Variegata Alba’
“Variegated Money Plant”

An absolutely elegant, fast growing plant for shade. The arching, heart-shaped leaves are beautifully green & white variegated, lighting up a shady area. This rare “Money Plant” also bears white blooms in late Spring or Summer followed by the well known translucent, silvery, flat seed pods, wonderful for dried arrangements. To 3’ tall, it grows in sun or shade by the coast & shade inland. Drought tolerant, not fussy about soil, reseeds easily, coming true from seed. NOTE: PLANTS LOOK GREEN WHEN SMALL BUT TRUST ME, THEY WILL VARIEGATE AS THEY GROW OLDER!! Easy!
