<< Hello out there to all you gardeners, especially those of you who live in
 Zone 5. I am looking to find some sweet honesty plants. they are aslo
 known as money plants because of their seed pods looking like coins. The
 botanical name is "lunaria" methinks.  If anyone knows where I can get a
 few of these glorious plants,  I would be most grateful.  It is a hardy
 perrenial and it appears to grow just about anywhere with little or no
 care at all with the exception of trimming the seed pods so flowering
 will continue. I have a weak little seedling that I am nursing
 along...Need help!!!

Hi Kathy,
I have lots of money plant in my yard.  It self seeds like crazy and has very
pretty purple flowers in the spring and of course the silvery coin like seed
pods.  It's a biennial(sp?) -- the first year a green plant, the second year
it flowers and then dies.  I'm not sure how plants would fare in the mail.  If
you remind me later in the season I'd be happy to send you seeds.  I just
switched from regular digest to MIME digest, and this is my first attempt to
respond to an email.
