Forget-Me-Not (Myosotis sylvatica) is a perennial plant native to the provinces and northwestern states of Canada and the United States.
In 1949, it was declared the state flower of Alaska. It was meant to represent perseverance, a quality that distinguished the early pioneers of Alaska. The Myosotis genus belongs to the Boraginaceae family (borage) and has 150 to 200 species[1].
