Myosotidium Hortensia – 12cm

The Chatham Island forget-me-not (Myosotidium Hortensia) is an iconic megaherb, endemic to the Chatham Island archipelago, where it grows on wild coastal cliffs, sandy and rocky beaches and rock outcrops.

Revered by gardeners nationwide, this blue-flowered inflorescence faces extinction in the wild. This stunning plant features glossy green foliage, spraying blue flowers in late spring.

Growing half a metre tall and wide, this hardy evergreen prefers a shady situation in moist, well drained soil. Mulch in spring and feed regularly with liquid seaweed.
