Sylvatica is the Latin Name for this plant. It's widely known as Forget Me Not, a beautiful name for a beautiful flower. The blooms are quite small, but highly intelligent, and a peculiar blue.
Plant them in a patch, in half-shade if possible, and they will grow in just about any kind of soil. From a distance, the lovely blue color will look like a cloudy carpet on the forest floor (assuming you are lucky enough to have a forest).
Sylvatic is self-seeding, so once you get them started, they jump all around the place. They're very festive, often given as gifts. Give me some.
