Forget Me Nots in Yard

These tiny weeds are actually blue with a yellow center. The photo looks purple. I used my macro lens on my iPhone to snap this in my yard. Have always loved the Forget Me Not flowers. I love their name as well. These are called Field Forget Me Nots. The other type is called True Forget me Nots. Not much difference in the way they look. Either way, I love these tiny beauties. Weeds are flowers too. These will remain in my yard. I hope to see more soon.

I almost bought seeds for these at the dollar tree the other day.

I didn't know what they were until I researched. Have always wanted these in my garden.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Same here. It is hard to find blue flowers. And there are ten types of these. I had no idea.

@CarolDM It's rare to see blue (at least out here) - but they are pretty in purple too.

@much2say They are blue, not sure what happened with the camera on the iPhone. No edits were done.

I love wild flowers. Didn’t know a lot of flower names including this one and I always forget except for the really common ones like roses, daisies, tulips. They’re lovely Carol and i think they’re super tiny coz you used your macro lens.

Thank you! Good to see you. These are one of my favorites, mainly for the blue color and the name. Reminds me of Dustin of course. This photo came out as a purple hue, I will take more.

They use the Forget me knot flower as the symbol for Alzheimer's organisation here in the UK.

@CarolDM I had my first virus injection and I was one of those people who react. I can't remember the last time I was so ill! Needless to say, I used that as an excuse to be really lazy!
