+In German, わらび is //Adlerfarn//. It's very common, and it's poisonous (leaves, roots and all). So while there are videos of people making their own わらび-starch by digging out the rhizomes, crushing and washing them and then letting the starch settle; it's probably better to get store-bought わらび粉 (or a substitute with cornstarch).
+You'd dig out the roots in autumn, in any case, but some Japanese dishes use the young shoots of the plant in March (again, poisonous). Because of that, it's associated with March and spring time (even though the roots are harvested in spring).
