OBELISK 

 FORGET-ME-NOT 



Myosotis Alpetris 

 Sti'icta. 



This new Forget-Me- 

 Not is of a very striking 

 and peculiar but charm- 

 i n g habit. All the 

 branches of the plant 

 are of a strong upright 

 or perpendicular growth, 

 without bending, to the 

 side, causing it to be 

 very compact, and form- 

 ing a miniature "obe- 

 lisk " or pillar. It is 

 in consequence particu- 

 larly useful as pot plants 

 or for edging and bor- 

 ders.
