✂️ Care

Myosotis 'Mon Amie Blue' is a hardy and floriferous perennial, perfect for creating intense and romantic blue beds in semi-shaded areas. Its medium green foliage and small, vibrant blue flowers provide a colorful presence from spring to autumn.

Prune lightly after the first bloom to maintain a compact shape and stimulate reblooming. Keep the soil moist but well-drained; water regularly during dry periods. The plant thrives in cool conditions and prefers partial to full shade.

Divide every three to four years in spring to revitalize clumps and encourage vigorous growth. Remove spent flowers to prolong blooming and promote an abundance of new flowers throughout the season.
