Forget-me-not is a plant of the genus Lithospermaceae. Forget-me-not flower words are eternal love, strong friendship, immutable heart, and everlasting memories. Forget-me-not means "Please don't forget my sincere love" or "Please miss me, faithful hope that everything is not too late, I will come back to give you happiness again".

Forget-me-not is literally translated from the English name Forget-me-not. Forget-me-not itself has the meaning of "eternity". Although it looks like a paper flower, it has always been regarded as a "kind of love in flowers". Therefore, some people call it unwithered flowers, also known as Acacia grass. Young men and women give each other not to forget me to express their deep feelings. And after the forget-me-not is made into dried flowers, the color will not fade for a long time, so it is very suitable to be sandwiched in a book or as a token of love.

Source legend

In German legend, when God has finished naming all the flowers, an unnamed flower cries, "Oh, my God, please don't forget me (Forget-me-not)!"

So God readily replied, "this is your name."

Forget-me-not made into dried flowers, the color does not fade for a long time, it is very suitable to be sandwiched in a book or as a token of love, so it is named.

Fancy stories

The name "forget-me-not" comes from a tragic love story. It is said that a German knight was walking with his lover on the banks of the Danube and saw little blue flowers blooming on the banks of the river. Regardless of the danger of his life, the knight leaned over to pick flowers, only to fall into the rapids. The knight, who knew he could not be saved, said, "Don't forget me!" He threw the blue transparent flower at his lover and disappeared into the water.

Since then, the knight's lovers wear small blue flowers in their hair day and night to show their unforgettability and loyalty to their loved ones, and that blue transparent flower is therefore called "forget-me-not". Its floral words are "Don't forget me" and "True Love".
