Lunaria (Lunaria annua) known as monthlily is from the cabbage family. Lunaria is native to areas of southern and central Europe and Asia Minor. The plant is naturalized in many regions and found as wild (also in Poland) on the edges of forests, meadows and in gardens. The most distinctive feature of this plant is its decorative fruit stem, which, when dried, resembles a silvery, translucent coin, hence another name - Judas silvers.
