Description
Grow a garden filled with Rose Forget-Me-Not flowers, from freshly harvested Myosotis alpestris flower seeds. Rose Forget-Me-Not Mixture will produce lovely pink colored flowers. The blooms are roughly a quarter of an inch in diameter, displaying 5 petals which surround a yellow buttoned center. These tiny flowers bloom through the summer months and stand above attractive green foliage. Rose Forget-Me-Not plants themselves, will reach a mature height of roughly 16 to 18 inches tall.
Rose Forget-Me-Not is categorized as a biennial / annual flowering plant. This cool weather wildflower will establish itself quickly, growing and blooming profusely through the warm months of summer, up until late fall. When the weather becomes cooler, the plants will wilt on the surface, later dying with the first frost. The plants are known to readily self seed and can return the following year from seeds that fall to the bare ground beneath. If the winter months are not too harsh, your Forget-Me-Not plants can survive, regrowing from roots. You can also collect seeds from dried flower heads at the end of the Autumn season to resow yourself, when the Spring rolls around.
Rose Forget-Me-Not flowers are not just beautiful in the garden, their attractive leaves, stems and blooms can also be used indoors as well. Myosotis is a perfect selection for use as a cut flower in all sorts of floral arrangements and bouquets. These beauties can also be dried out for arts & crafts as well. Plant Rose Forget-Me-Not directly in the garden, in flower beds, pots & containers and in rock gardens. The clusters of tiny little blooms will attract an array of beneficial insects to the garden, such as butterflies, hummingbirds, bumblebees & honeybees.
