The Siberian larch (Larix sibirica) or Russian larch is a frost-hardy tree. It is a medium-size to large tree reaching 20-50 m tall, with a trunk up to 1 m diameter. The crown is conic when young, becoming broad with age. The shoots are dimorphic, with growth divided into long shoots (typically 10-50 cm long. It has bimorphic needles, with needles on new growth borne singly and arranged in a spiral around the branch. It is most easily distinguished from the closely related European larch by the shoots being downy (hairless in European larch).

The leaves are needle-like, light green, 2-5 cm long, and turn bright yellow before they fall in the autumn. The male and female cones are borne separately on the same tree, the male cones are solitary, yellow, 4-8 mm diameter, and produce wingless pollen. The mature female cones are erect, 2-5 cm long, they are green variably flushed red when immature, turning brown and opening to release the winged seeds when mature, 4–6 months after pollination. The old cones commonly remain on the tree for many years, turning dull grey-black. Because of its rot resistance, larch wood is especially valuable for posts, poles, railroad tie sleepers, and mine props.

Arizona cypress (Cupressus arizonica) is a coniferous evergreen tree with a conic to ovoid-conic crown. It grows to heights of 10–25 m and its trunk diameter reaches 0.5 m. The foliage grows in dense sprays, varying from dull gray-green to bright glaucous blue-green. The leaves are scale-like, 2–5 mm long. The seed cones are globose to oblong, 15–33 mm long, green at first, maturing gray or gray-brown about 20–24 months after pollination. The cones remain closed for many years, only opening after the parent tree is killed in a wildfire, thereby allowing the seeds to colonize the bare ground exposed by the fire. Arizona Cypress is widely cultivated as an ornamental tree.

Lunaria annua, called honesty or annual honesty in English, is a species of flowering plant native to the Balkans and south west Asia, and naturalized throughout the temperate world. It is an annual or biennial growing to 90 cm tall by 30 cm broad, with large, coarse, pointed oval leaves with marked serrations. In spring and summer it bears terminal racemes of violet (rarely white) flowers, followed by showy, light brown, disc-shaped seedpods the skin of which falls off to release the seeds, revealing a central membrane which is white with a silvery sheen, 3–8 cm in diameter, they persist on the plant through winter.

The Latin name lunaria means "moon-shaped" and refers to the shape and appearance of the seedpods. In South East Asia, it is called the "money plant". This plant is easy to grow from seed. It is usually grown as a biennial, being sown one year to flower the next. It is suitable for cultivation in a shady or dappled area, or in a wildflower garden, and the flowers and dried seedpods are often seen in flower arrangements.
