What is the soil condition for planting the Silver Dollars plants. Should I plant them in moist soil or do they love dry soil conditions. Should they have shade or sun?

"Money Plant" will grow in either sun or shade, but prefers partial shade and a moderately fertile, well drained soil. Lunaria annua is actually a biennial. Experiment with the best times to grow it in your area. I suspect October planting may do best, although you may get results with a spring planting. Remember also that this plant readily self-sows.
