"Forget Me Not" has been one of the flowers that I have always liked and wanted to have if I had a yard. Well? Now I have my own yard! I shall plant the seeds and hope they grow to bear those tiny pretty blue flowers.
These are the seeds - how tiny! It's hard to believe one seed will grow to a plant that bears flowers as I've known. Again, I used the peat pallets to sow these seeds; I used three pallets and sowed three seeds in each one.
About a week after sowing the seeds, seedlings emerged from the peat pallets. It's hard to see in this picture, but they are fuzzy! 8 out of 9 seeds germinated - I am happy!
