These humble, self-sown annuals are very attractive in any garden, in flower beds, borders and rock gardens.
In early spring Forget-me-nots combine well with spring flowering bulbs, tulips, daffodils, as well as with pansies, primroses and columbine, in partially shaded areas.
Some of the species are short lived but others flower till early fall, though their foliage is not so attractive as they age.
Forget-me-not grows well in light, rich, and well drained soil, filling up the spaces between other, more showy plants.
Besides the well known blue flowering Forget-me-not, the white and pink varieties are really special, as you can see in the following photos:

These are so beautiful - make me happy!
I've only known forget-me-nots in blue. I'm so glad to know they also come in pink, my favorite flower color!
I haven't seen pink and white forget-me-nots, all we have here are the blue ones. Nice pictures.
You really got great clarity in these photos Maia. And the depth of field is gorgeous.
I just love these little flowers, especially the blue colored ones. They are just so fresh and lovely.
Is the name really forget-me-not, so funny:) Anyway they are beautiful and I would take them to my yard.
With such beauty, I will never forget them!
Nice name for a very cute flower...
Joyful flowers!
