Hello, It's Myosotidium hortensia, or the Chatham Island Forget-me-Not.
The flowers, a larger version of our own forget-me-not but the leaves are thick & fleshy, hence the slugs & snails are rather partial. I grow mine in large pots and the snails seem to leave them alone. Can be grown from seed. Good Luck. PamD

That's lovely. What's it called. I'd like to try and get one for my garden.
