The Root of the Flower: Forget-Me-Nots

The symbolism and beauty of this dainty joyful flower

The forget-me-not is such a dainty and delicate flower, with a subtle sky blue color; holding the attention of its audience at a single glance. Whenever I see forget-me-nots, its beauty makes my heart skip a beat.

The forget-me-not, or myosotis is a perennial plant with petite sky blue flowers, joyfully dancing on blades of green foliage. They have a cheerful yellow and white center on each flower. Forget-me-nots love rich, moist soil in partial shade along streams and woodland areas. They can be a lovely ground cover, or even be planted in pots.
