What is the name of the flower/plant is shown in this vase?
They are stems of a "Silver Dollar Plant" or, also known as, "Money Plant" and "Honesty". What you see are the dried seed pods. Its latin name is "Lunaria Annua". It is more commonly an annual and can be invasive in the garden. The papery silver-dollar sized disks are revealed when you rub off the outer part of the seed pod after you see the seeds start to turn brown. They are frquenty used in dried arrangements, just as seen in your link.
Reply:It is called Money Plant, or Honesty. Lunaria. Those are the seed pods and they look like silver coins.Very tough and easy to grow from seed.
Reply:The money plant (lunaria annua).
