Hi Katerina, the flower is very similar to Myosotis (forget-me-not in England) but it will grow in dryer conditions than Myosotis scorpioides, its a tough little plant and well worth growing.

Fantastic. Yes, I translated it from Slovak as not-forgetting-flower, but forget-me-not is better translation. Imagine, Slovakia is so far from the Isles, and the folk name for this ordinary flower is the same. Wonderful. I love GoY.

Katarina... yes, that's interesting that the flower name forget-me-not is so similar in Slovak . I wonder if there are other similar flower names ... :o)))

Yes. .... I'm sure we'll discover more similar names as time goes by :o) Lol.

Plantoholic... I managed to buy this yesterday... one of only two left in the garden centre... Lol.
Where is yours planted ? Full shade ?
Dry ? Damp ?

It prefers damp soil in semi shade, but will grow in full sun ( as mine is ) as long as it is not too dry.

Starry eyes. What a wonderful and suitable name for this. Reminds me Myosotis scorpioides (do not know the English name), this is very similar plant growing wildy on the banks of rivers or in woods in Europe. Its Slovak folk name could be translated like "Not forgetting flower".
