Myosotis sylvatica Rosylva is a refined variety from the Sylva Series, loved for its compact growth habit, grey-green foliage, and strikingly soft flower colour. While Myosotis is often seen in classic blue, Rosylva with romantic pink flowers that bloom from early spring into early summer. This rarer shade makes it particularly suitable for pastel-coloured borders, spring flower arrangements, and natural garden settings with a touch of softness and elegance.
Like the other Sylva types, Rosylva a biennial to short-lived perennial with a lightly hairy rosette of leaves. After a cold overwintering period (vernalization), the plant reaches maximum flowering abundance, forming dense clusters of pink flowers with a light yellow center — a subtle accent that further emphasizes its charm.
The Sylva Series is known for its uniformity, vibrant color, and prolific flowering. Rosylva combines these qualities with a unique, romantic appearance.
