A nostalgic favourite with a wild twist, Cynoglossum—often called Blue Forget Me Not—produces delicate sprays of true blue flowers on branching stems, perfect for adding a soft, airy feel to spring and early summer arrangements. More robust than the woodland forget-me-not, this annual variety grows taller and stronger, making it ideal for cutting. A sweet filler with cottage garden charm.
Best for: Soft bouquet filler, early-season cutting, natural-style gardens.
Approx 40 seeds per packet

Thrives in full sun to part shade with free-draining soil. Pinch back the growing tip early to encourage branching. Water regularly during dry spells. Harvest when ⅓ of the flowers on a stem are open for best vase life. Will self-sow lightly if left to set seed. |
