Description

Forget-me-not, or Myosotis, is a humble but glorious spring flower, which appears in frothy blue clouds at the front of borders and at the edges of paths. It complements other spring flowers, making a great backdrop for taller tulips or wallflowers, and naturalises easily for wilder-style plantings. It can also look great in a window box or container. Grow forget-me-nots in moist, but well-drained soil in a sunny or shady spot. Planting forget-me-nots alongside other shade-loving plants can make for an attractive display. How to Grow foget-me-not from Seed Sow forget-me-not seeds directly outdoors in May or June, or indoors in May, June and September. If sowing under cover, sprinkle seeds and cover with compost. Use a heated propagator or a warm windowsill to create the right conditions for germination. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, prick out and pot on. Flowers will appear the following year. Propagating forget-me-not Forget-me-not will self-seed easily. Either allow them to spread naturally or lift new seedlings and replant where you choose. How to care for forget-me-not Most forget-me-not varieties are biennial, meaning they self-seed freely. Pull up the plants before they set seed if you don't want them to spread too profusely.
