Growing & Maintenance Tips for Myosotis sylvatica 'Victoria Rose'

Excellent for massing amongst spring flowering bulbs. To keep plants healthy, give them midday shade and a rich soil with average drainage. Cut them back or remove them before their summer dormancy. As they replace themselves with self-seeding be sure to leave a few plants for this purpose. Plant them in a woodland or mixed border.
