Bay forget-me-not (Myosotis laxa) grows near the Sangerfield River in Madison County, N.Y. in May, 2015. "Myosotis" comes from the Greek for "mouse ear," named for the shape of the tiny petals. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)
Nice article. Just a quick FYI- there are 3 native species of Myosotis in Maryland. In addition to the bay forget-me-not, there also is the large-seeded forget me not (Myosotis macrosperma) and spring forget-me-not (Myosotis verna). Both species are uncommon but are still present.
Thank you!
