Firmament organic Chinese forget-me-not
$ 4,75
Cynoglossum amabile, Boraginaceae
Chinese forget-me-not 'Firmament' is an annual plant with remarkable flowers of pure, intense light blue. Not creeping like the wild forget-me-not, it erects its long flower stems high up, perfect for bouquets. The more you pick it, the more it will bloom again, and resow itself on the spot if you give the flowers a chance to ripen their seeds. It's also a good player in potted gardens or other containers. 40 cm-75 cm high.

Sow on site in the garden about 5 mm deep after any danger of frost when the soil reaches a minimum of 15 ˚C, ideally between 15 ˚C and 20 ˚C. Aim for 30 cm plant spacing. Alternatively, start seedlings indoors 4-5 weeks before transplanting after the last expected frost. Grow in full sun or part shade, regardless of soil. The main stem can be pinched back when the plant reaches 20 cm to encourage bushier growth.
