Description

Indigo Blue is a forget-me-not with flowers a shade deeper than the usual sky blue, made for weaving through tulips and carpeting the ground beneath shrubs in spring. Sprays of tiny five-petalled flowers sit above soft, grey-green leaves, and the plants self-seed gently so the display returns year after year with little help. Myosotis alpestris 'Indigo Blue' grows to about 40 cm in flower, which suits the front of a border, window boxes, spring containers and woodland edges, and its early flowers feed bees when little else is open.

Sowing and growing

  • Sow May to July, outdoors in a seedbed or in trays, for flowers the following spring.
  • Sow thinly and cover very lightly, about 3 mm deep.
  • Germination takes 10 to 21 days.
  • Sun or partial shade, in moist, reasonably fertile soil; move young plants to their flowering spot in early autumn.
  • Grows to about 40 cm tall and 20 cm wide.
  • Flowers April to June.
  • Hardy biennial: it flowers in its second year, then sets seed and often sows itself.

What you receive: a packet of about 150 seeds from Piccolo Seeds, with growing instructions on the back.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I sow forget-me-not seeds?

Sow from May to July. Seedlings grow on through summer, are planted out in early autumn and flower the following spring. Seed sown in spring will not usually flower until the next year.

Do forget-me-nots come back every year?

Individual plants usually flower once and then die, but they drop plenty of seed, so new plants appear each year. Pull out spent plants after flowering, shaking them over the bed first if you want seedlings in the same spot.

Will forget-me-nots grow in shade?

They are happy in partial or dappled shade, such as under deciduous shrubs or along a woodland edge, as well as in sun. Moist soil suits them best. Deep shade gives fewer flowers.

What is your returns policy?

We always aim to make sure our customers love our products, but if you do need to return an order within 14 days of purchase (not including plants*), or any items are damaged, we’re happy to help. Just email us directly at hello@growtropicals.com, and we’ll take you through the process. 

Please note: we cannot be held liable for any packaging costs should the original packaging be discarded.

*Unfortunately we cannot accept returns of undamaged plants as these are perishable items and are not saleable upon return. If a plant is damaged, we will compensate for this as per our live arrival guarantee.

When will my order arrive and how much is shipping?

When placing your order, you can choose from three dispatch speeds to suit your needs: Economy (prepared and shipped within 4-5 days), Standard (3-5 days), or Express (dispatched the very next day). Please keep in mind that "dispatch" refers to the time it takes our team to prepare and pack your items before handing them over to the courier, not the total delivery time.

Shipping costs are based on your total order value and will be calculated at checkout, with free shipping automatically applied to all orders over £60. For a full breakdown of shipping prices see our Help Centre.

Additionally, to protect the health and quality of our live plants, orders containing plants are exclusively shipped Monday through Thursday. This careful scheduling prevents your plants from being stuck in a dark shipping depot over the weekend, ensuring they arrive at your door vibrant and healthy.
