    I've collected seeds off a variety of honesty that has a pointy eye-shaped seed case instead of the more usual oval shape. Is this just a variation or will the plants be markedly different from the normal purple/white variety?

    Hi Madahhlia, Not sure, but I think the pointy seeds belong to the perennial species of Lunaria...(rediviva). It looks pretty much like the annual one, though.

      Ah, thanks for that. Perennial ones'd be cool.
