A spring-flowering favourite, Forget-me-nots are biennial or short-lived perennials that self-seed to come back for many years. This variety forms a low mound of grey-green leaves, smothered with clusters of soft-blue flowers, each with a tiny yellow eye. Excellent for massing with spring-blooming bulbs. Seedlings may be easily moved in the fall or very early spring. Seedlings should be thinned to stand about 6 inches apart, to reduce fungal disease problems, particularly in regions with hot, humid summers. After flowering, discard all but a few plants in order to produce seed for next year. A strain selected by PanAmerican Seed, this does not require vernalization and will flower in the first year.
