Tell Me More...
Myosotis palustris is a pretty, spreading native, known as the Water Forget-me-Not, and happily scrambles gently through other plants near the edges of ponds and other watery spots.Sprays of flat, 5-petalled yellow-eyed, bright baby-blue blooms, seem to bubble over low evergreen mounds of grey-green foliage from June to August. Spreading into neat cushions using creeping rhizomes, the blooms hover, giving an airy feel. Much loved by bees and butterflies, deer and rabbits tend to leave alone.In Ancient Greek, Myosotis is said to mean 'Mouse's ear', after the shape of each leaf. While palustris means 'swampy' in Latin. A native to the UK, Myosotis palustris prefers to be grown in moist soil in sun or part shade and is happy in water up to 10cm deep. Reaching a height of around 30cm and spreading to 40cm, she is a fully hardy perennial with an RHS rating of H6.
