This plant has a low, mounded appearance and makes an excellent groundcover. Feature Mon Amie Blue in beds, borders, or containers. This plant is a vigorous grower and can quickly overtake an area, so featuring it in containers keeps it under control. This plant grows as a perennial in zones 3 through 8.

Mon Amie Blue Forget-Me-Not Care

Grow the Forget-Me-Not in full sun or partial shade, although this plant prefers morning sun and afternoon shade in warmer climates. Plant it in rich, moist, and well-drained soil. This beauty has high water needs, so keep the soil consistently moist, but do not leave it in standing water. Top-dress the soil with organic compost or mulch or apply a balanced fertilizer in the spring.

It’s hard to forget these plants because they readily self-seed and will quickly fill in an area. Some gardeners opt to remove or cut the greenery back after the flowers fade to prevent all of the plants from setting seeds.
