Honesty - Lunaria - Money Plant (Lunaria annua) Silver Dollar Moonwort Money Plant Flower

Biennial

Height 2-3 ft

Lunaria annua, also called Honesty, Annual Honesty, Moonwort, Money Plant, and Silver Dollar Plant, is a species of flowering plant in the cabbage and mustard family Brassicaceae. Honesty is native to the Balkans and South-west Asia, and is widely cultivated throughout the temperate world.

Lunaria plants are classified as biennials as they form a basal rosette of leaves during its first year and purple flowers, or seed pods, emerge the following year. The iridescent "leaves" are actually seed pods called silicles. These seed pods follow the flowers.

Seed pods start out with a green outer husk, and later shed the husk along with their seeds. Great self seeder. Afterwards, the fully dried see through discs appear and are paper-like, and have a short, needle-like projection that hangs down from the bottom of each seed pod, and their sheen makes them appear as coins...hence the name 'silver dollars'. 

 

Honesty has a cabbage like taste in both the leaves and flowers. The flowers can be added to salads. The leaves can be collected and used as a green vegetable or in salads before the flowers appear. The dried seed pods are often used in flower arranging due to their silver, coin like appearance. Purple or white cross shaped flowers grow all over the tall stems.

Seeds can be used to make a mustard substitute which is strengthened by crushing and mixing with cold water. The root can be peeled and eaten. The seeds taste like mustard. Plant lunaria in the spring after the final frost—it will grow quickly, with seedlings emerging in just 10 to 14 days.  

  • Sun to part shade
  • Prefers well-draining evenly moist soil
  • Direct sow recommended: before the flowers appear in Spring it can be easy to confuse with several other species but after the white or purple flowers bloom the plant can be identified quite easily.
  • Sow the harvested seeds outdoors in spring as soon as you can work the ground, covering them lightly with soil and water.
  • Spacing: 15 to 18 in apart
  • Germination: about 2 weeks.
  • Harvest: cut the plant off at its base -bring indoors and tie a bundle with some twine and suspend upside-down in a room with low humidity levels. The seed pods should be fully dried in about 2 to 3 weeks; the husk (green outer layer) has typically fallen off by itself, if it doesn't,  gently rub it off.  Requires thorough drying. RC

Useful with some scientific corroboration
Format: Paperback
Worth it as a primer to slide content and how it inter-relates to the delivery when giving a presentation. Very slightly laboured, like most TV documentaries nowadays - you feel they could move a bit faster (...yeah we got it the first time).

Simple and streamlined to meet anyone's needs
Format: Paperback
This book rocks! It provide a simple and structured way to define, develop and deliver a "Kick Ass" presentation that you can project or just use from the podium. It bring the audio and visual together to compliment a story to be shared. It has taken the hassel factor out of designing a presentation for anyone on any subject. Thank you!

Lasting value but degraded presentation
Format: Paperback
I've been a BBP fan since the first edition in 2005. The second edition in 2007 was a significant update and refinement. The latest, 2011 edition, is not worth buying if you already have the second edition -- the information is essentially the same but the 2011 is printed on cheap paper and the contrast between text and background for most of the illustrations is lousy, e.g. black text on a dark grey background, white text on a light grey background. I found it very difficult to read. The online version (O'Reilly Safari Books OnLine) is slightly better because it allows you to magnify the low contrast images which makes them slightly more legible. Thankfully, access to the online version is included with the ink-on-paper book free via a scratch-off, lottery ticket-type insert at the back of the book. If I had to do it again, I'd skip the paper book from Amazon and just purchase electronic access via O'Reilly. This version is more legible and you can print important pages that you might want hard copies of to highlight, mark-up, etc.

Powerful for the presenter
Format: Paperback
My boss's boss recently told me that our organization's presentations are boring data dumps that make her wish she was somewhere other than there listening but not really hearing or caring about this slide and dreading the next. She suggested that since I was going to be doing a lot of presentations in the future I should avoid that method and do better presentations. I immediately sought advice from our best presenter and learned that his method came from his gut feelings about what worked better. He has good instincts but to codify what he explained I decided to buy a book to learn why his approach works. The closest book with an effective explanation I could find is "beyond bullet points". It captured and expanded on the instinct my new mentor explained so that I could now understand how to use the slides to supplement the story and how to interweave the data so the whole presentation is more meaningful and memorable. I recommend this book to anyone looking for more of an answer on how to improve their presentations and eliminate the data dump in bullet points.
