Forget Me Not Native Wildlflower Seed

Myosotis

Other names: mouse-ear, scorpion grass

An instantaneously recognisable wildflower, creating an ethereal carpet of blue.

 Symbolising eternal love and devotion or a story of unrequited love. Whatever your tale, forget me nots hark back to a by-gone era, knights in shining armour, wars waged over love and jousting competitions just to win some attention. Now its all online dating, friends with benefits and splitting the bill.

Saying that, invading and conquering can get a little tedious as well as being rather time consuming. If you want to gain affection scatter some of these. Wait a couple of months, pick up a couple and huzzah, a true romantic, a modern day knight in shining armour.

Though it doesn’t always have to be about romance, forget me nots are the perfect addition for the shadier parts of the garden that come back year after year serving as a reminder that we love you.
