One of the all-time world favorites among wildflowers often used at funerals. Forget me nots received their name based on the romantic legend: a medieval knight, gathering blue flowers along a stream for his lady love, was suddenly swept away by flood waters. As he disappeared, he tossed the bouquet to his lady with the immortal words, "Forget me not."
Forget Me Not wild flower seed will grow in all regions of North America and is very easy to establish. Will grow in sun or shade and will start to bloom early. Keep in mind that this species actually grows in the wild in streambeds and wet woodlands. This means lots of moisture, and shade tolerance. These flowers love water and will grow well in almost any wet spot. Extremely easy to grow from seed in early spring or fall after frosts.
Forget me not like many gorund cover seeds is a ready self-seeder. To encourage reseeding, leave spent flowers on the plants well after they have faded. Just let the flowers drop their seed in late fall and it will produce new forget me nots the following spring. Forget-me-not does especially well under trees or large shrubs but also thrives in lightly shaded rock gardens and flower beds.
