Myosotis alpestris, commonly known as the alpine forget-me-not, is a perennial flowering plant native to mountainous regions of Europe and North America. It typically grows in rocky, well-drained soils and can reach heights of 10 to 30 centimeters. The plant features small, bright blue flowers with a yellow center, which bloom from late spring to early summer. This species is often found in alpine meadows and is adapted to cold climates. Myosotis alpestris is not only appreciated for its beauty but also plays a role in local ecosystems, providing nectar for pollinators like bees and butterflies.
