I go to a Gardening program given every year at a college in a neighboring community and I always purchase plants from one of the vendors as a gesture of support. A vendor had pink and blue myosotis. The blue was \'Victoria\'. It\'s supposed to be perennial or biennial. Some sites call it invasive. I plan to avoid deadheading it to see if it returns.

It appears to be quite long blooming. It was in full bloom when I got it weeks ago and it is still perfect. I paid $3.00 each so I got a nice deal.

Neal (Gemini Sage) gave me some years ago, but it was in a full sun location in clay. He said to me later that he has trouble holding on to it too. I will be forever grateful to him because in exchange for some lilies he sent me blue and white myosotis and, more importantly, Geranium \'Biokovo\', amongst other geraniums, and \'Biokovo\' has become an important part of my garden. It hangs out with old garden roses.
