Forget-Me-Not - Victoria Pink Dwarf
The Forget-Me-Not Victoria Pink, 'Myosotis sylvatica compacta', is a superior strain of one of the earliest spring bloomers. Not many plants bloom well in the shade, but Victoria Pink prefers it. The Victoria Pink Forget-Me-Not has numerous 1/3 inch flowers that are petite, pink star-shaped and with a white center. The flowers rise gracefully above neat, low growing mounds. They bloom in early spring for 2 to 4 weeks. The Victoria Pink prefers partial sun to partial shade. The soil should be light, rich, and well drained. They should be kept evenly moist and they should not dry out. Plant in early spring or in or late summer/early fall. The Forget-Me-Nots are excellent for woodland settings and for an early splash of color in moist shady areas. ... more info
