Chinese Forget-Me-Not Mystic Pink
Product Description
Chinese Forget-Me-Not 'Mystic Pink'
Cynoglossum amabile
Unlike traditional biennial Forget-Me-Nots which require a full year to bloom, Chinese Forget-Me-Nots can be grown as an annual crop and flower just three months from sowing. ‘Mystic Pink’ produces an abundance of tall, delicate cotton candy pink stems that look incredible en masse and mixed into arrangements.
