Hi,
Things are blooming in force here in Southern Ontario Canada after a benign winter and an early warm spell to start the spring off. These wildflowers have srpung up at the edge of my yard. They're quite pretty and I'd like to know what they are.

Denny- You're right!. . .It's very pretty! It looks a little bit like a kind of periwinkle. I did a Google search of images plugging in "periwinkle." There are dozens of pictures, you might want to try a search of your own. Here's one for example:
These sweet little flowers come up year after year in my Southern Ontario front yard - the are called Forget-me-nots! I get them in pink too.

The second photo is a plant commonly known as "money plant". It will get interesting round, translucent seed pods later in the summer. They are good for drying and useing in arrangments.

Denny-- the first one is Myosotis ( arvensis?? sylvatica?? ), a Forget Me Not.
The second one is something I'd like to have when I find out what it is!!!!!

Thanks Jenny for the heads up on this one ( Money Plant, Lunaria) I knew I'd seen the leaves, just don't recall seeing the actual flowering. I know they are a biennial, vegetative growth the first year, flowering and seeding the second.
I'll take a pass on my previous post and give them a miss.

Periwinkle is generally the common name for vincas around here. Try "Forget Me Not"......also the state flower of Alaska.
