Forget-Me-Not |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |

A unique, gold-leaved selection of the common Forget-Me-Not. Plants form a low mound of chartreuse-yellow leaves, contrasting beautifully with a lengthy spring display of deep sky-blue flowers. Divide yearly in early fall, in order to maintain vigour, and because these are short lived perennials or biennials. Seedlings will appear freely; remove any self-sown seedlings with green leaves. Performs best in regions with cool summers. USPP#11318: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
