Forget-Me-Not

Here is a picture of a tiny Forget-Me-Not; one of my favorite spring flowers. In looking it up this morning I learned that it is fragrant in nighttime and evening but has no scent in the daytime.  I had no idea! It’s been one of my favorite flowers for years, but I never thought to sniff it at night! I’m going to get down on the ground and smell it when the sun goes down. Flowers are so mysterious.

This flower has been a symbol of remembrance since the middle ages and was my Grandmother’s favorite flower. I love to see its pale blue petals and bright yellow eye peeking out of moist hidden places this time of year. Do you have a favorite flower or a flower that reminds you of someone?
