Argentine Forget-Me-Not


Product Description
Argentine Forget-Me-Not
Omphalodes linifolia
This darling little plant is a must-grow for flower arranging, especially wedding work. While plants are on the shorter side, each one produces at least a dozen branching stems that are perfect for adding texture to posies and centerpieces. Tiny, white flowers open up the stem and leave behind delicate, gray-green seedpods that sparkle when touched by the breeze. Bees love them, too.
