A two-year crop

Patrick describes lunaria as a difficult two-year crop. Its production timeline helps explain why an April photograph of flowering plants does not mean finished dried pods are ready to ship.

From flower to dried material

The source places flowering around April, maturation and harvest in mid-to-late summer, then head cleaning and sales later in fall. That sequence distinguishes growing, harvesting and preparing the final dried product.

A spring farm record

The embedded newsletter carried Easter greetings and mature hellebore notes, while the gallery showed lunaria among spring flowering trees. For dried lunaria, specify cleaned or uncleaned material and verify the current season’s options.
