Re: Blue & yellow/was Potassium & wood ashes
Hello Sue,
If you like FMNs there are some other plants with that common name reference
without being actually related. Omphalodes verna is often called the "Creeping
Forget Me Not". Brunnera macrophylla is sometimes called "False FMN". I have not
had much luck with the true FMN here as the flea beetles devour the foliage and
keep them stripped.
Do you have a moist area for your FMNs?
