Plant Discovery: Forget-Me-Not


Myosotis Sylvatica


Plant Name
Forget-Me-Not

Scientific Name
Myosotis Sylvatica

Brief Summary
Woodland forget-me-nots are short-lived perennials valued for their color, with pink buds followed by small, attractive, numerous half-inch five-petaled blue flowers. A short plant (often just 5 inches at maturity) with a medium growth rate, forget-me-not has hairy stems with single flowers growing at the end of bunches of flowering stems. It attracts butterflies and resists rabbits and deer.

Forget-me-nots are cold hardy. Although they can grow in the sun or shade, they prefer moist, shaded woodland environments. In warmer, southern climates with high heat, they grow best in a shady spot.

Used for its therapeutic properties, forget-me-nots can be used as an astringent in poultices for wounds to tighten tissues. Some contain volatile oils which have been claimed to serve as a diaphoretic to induce sweat and act as an antidote for various poisons.
