Myosotis sylvatica Sylva Mixture – Colorful spring mix of blue, pink and white Forget-me-not

Myosotis sylvatica Sylva Mixture is a beautiful color combination from the popular Sylva Series. This selection combines three refined shades—bright blue, soft pink, and pure white—in a playful, natural mix that brightens gardens from early spring onward. Ideal for those who want variety and a natural-looking spring carpet without having to choose a specific color.

These forget-me-nots are biennial or short-lived perennials, forming compact clumps with softly hairy, gray-green leaves.
