FREE: Forget-Me-Nots

The listing, Forget-Me-Nots has ended.

I have 30 of my Forget-Me-Not seeds up for bids... Forget-Me-Not colored in a very deep rich sky blue, with a white inner ring and a yellow center... They have blooms that are about 1 cm diameter... Forget-Me-Nots may be annual or perennial plants. Although these are seeds from my annual plant... While the rich in color the butterflies just love the Forget-Me-Not!! They are partial to full shade and is generally planted in the spring after the last episode of frost. Because the plant is shade receptive, it is a beautiful addition to the landscaping below a tree or among bushes. The seeds of the Forget-Me-Not are very sticky and should be planted in a fertile compost mix where moisture is abundant. If seeds are planted in early Spring they will grow into a dome shaped plant and bloom the following spring. Blooms are evident from May through July at which point seeds can be gathered, collected, washed and stored for sowing the following year. Because they grow most profusely in shaded areas, Forget-Me-Nots should be planted 4-5" apart, in a general purpose fertilizer, covered in 1/8" of soil and mulched in the winter. As a biennial, the following spring, your garden will have a beautiful array of flowers in a large pool or mass.
The Forget-Me-Not was chosen as the Alaska State Flower in 1949.
