Yellow and Blue Forget-me-not
Myosotis discolor
Synonym: Myosotis versicolor
The photos on this page show yellow and blue forget-me-not

corner of Mt. Adams.........May 29. 2006. Note that all of the flowers are above the highest leaves.

Note that the youngest flowers begin as a light yellow color, then change to a powder blue color with maturity. Note also the numerous spreading hairs on the calyx
and that the pedicels are shorter than the calyx as the flowers drop and begin
to go into fruit.
