Fibigia clypeata

20 seeds Fibigia clypeata.

This plant in the mustard family produces yellow flowers in spring of its second year.

The real show comes later, with masses of flat silvery seed pods, good for cutting and dried arrangements. After a while, the pods come open to reveal golden-brown flat seeds; some drop quickly, others cling on for a long time. Listed as a perennial, it behaves like a biennial in our garden, but self-seeds to provide an ongoing supply.
