Forget-Me-Not (Myosotis sylvatica) is a cool-season annual in NE Florida, producing clouds of tiny blue, pink, or white flowers from late winter through spring. Plant seeds or transplants in October–November for peak bloom February–April; plants decline and die as summer heat arrives. Best in organically amended, consistently moist soil with morning sun.

Care essentials
Plant in full sun to part shade; in NE Florida's mild winters, a spot with morning sun and afternoon shade helps extend the bloom season and prevents premature heat stress.
Keep soil consistently moist but well-drained; this plant naturally occurs near water and will not tolerate drying out. Water regularly through the cool season bloom period.
Prefers organically rich, moist, well-drained loam with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Amend sandy NE Florida soils with compost. Apply a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) every 4–6 weeks during the cool season.
