I think of Luna as a Sunflower plant. Sunflowers tend to face towards the sun, and Luna herself generally has a sunny disposition even if people do think of her as "loony lovegood". Sunflowers can be used to extract toxins from the ground (like lead, arsenic, and uranium) and if there's anything Luna can do, it's help chip away at the icky-nasties of thw world.
Not to mention that Sunflowers are often a symbol of the green movement, and there's a Sunflower guerilla gardening day where people gather and surprise plant sunflowers in otherwise neglected places. Luna's that spot of sunshine that you didn't expect, and that activity just feels like the sort of thing she'd be into.
