Myosotis Sylvatica (Wood Forget-Me-Not) is a short-lived perennial with lovely bright blue, sometimes pink or white, tiny and airy, stellar flowers with charming white or yellow eyes. Blooming in dense cymes between mid-spring and mid-summer, the nectar and pollen are enjoyed by bumblebees and butterflies. The flowers rise atop a low mound of semi-evergreen, oblong, soft, hairy green leaves. Easy care and resilient to most pests, it is excellent for massing with spring-blooming bulbs and is particularly attractive beneath pink, rose, or salmon-colored tulips.
