Forget me nots are a species of small pale blue or pink flowers that grow across Eurasia and New Zealand.
They prefer to grow in moist environments and love riverbanks and in wetlands.
The seeds are contained in small, tulip-shaped pods along the stem to the flower. The pods attach to clothing when brushed against and eventually fall off, leaving the small seed within the pod to germinate elsewhere. Seeds can be collected by placing a sheet of paper under stems and shaking the seed pods onto the paper.
