Water Forget-Me-Not

Water forget-me-not was once more commonly known as 'Scorpion-grass' because its curled clusters of sky-blue flowers resembled a scorpion's tail. It can be found in damp habitats, such as riverbanks, fens, marshes and ponds, either submerged in shallow water, or on surrounding ground. Its pretty flowers appear from June to September and are a favourite in traditional cottage gardens.
