Forget-me-not is a humble spring flower, which appears in frothy blue clouds at the front of borders and at the edges of paths. Here they are with ladybirds!

"For Tahlequah" teableau for 01/05/24

There was jubilation in my neighborhood when we saw she had a new baby, and devastation when it died. We feel her grief like a physical pain. Southern Resident orcas are critically endangered, currently numbering only 73.

Michelle Hanson took these awesome photos of the state of Alaska flower, Forget-Me-Nots. Just gorgeous! #Alaska #AlaskaStateFlower #ForgetMeNots #SummerInAlaska

"Forget Me Never" teableau for 05/10/24

I've barely done any more work on my little #robin #painting. Life gets in the way sometimes. But this is where I'm up to. Shouldn't be long now until it's finished.

my first contribution to #BloomScrolling, my forget-me-nots are coming along! #gardening #containerGarden #forgetmenots #flowers

The forget-me-not was once called scorpion grass because the flower heads curl over and people thought they looked like scorpion tails.

In the mid-1850s, there was a trend in Germany for planting forget-me-nots on graves.

In the Victorian language of flowers, the forget-me-not meant 'remembrance'.

Forget-Me-Nots

How could I ever?

Tiny forget-me-nots.

In about 4 or 5 more weeks these will be growing again, covering the garden with their blueness.

#Vss365 (# Gardener's version)

At the #Pond, Gigi talked about damp soil.

"#Plants that like wet feet have great little backstories - like these forget-me-nots.

In #Scottish #Folklore, two sisters visited a #Loch where a water horse called a #KELPIE lived.

But as soon as the girls reached the shore, the Kelpie dragged them into the water & they drowned.

In the place where they once stood, #ForgetMeNots blossomed."

Gigi couldn't resist teasing,

"So if you see a Kelpie, call for helpie."

Blue Monday? Another opportunity to toot some forget-me-nots.

I love these little flowers. Every spring I sit or kneel at the edge of the gardens photographing them.

Little blue petals of #love.
