Pink forget-me-not ?

[Gemma]

Is there a reason why I no longer see pink forget-me-not for sale?
I really would like to find some next year, does anyone have a reliable online source to recommend?

I didn't google, thought I'd ask here first!
I just recently remember that I used to have them in my pond, while I was trying to figure what plants to add!
I guess not seeing them for sale in any store, made me "forget" their existence! Funny huh?

Funny huh

My husband constantly forgets what the forget-me-nots are called. And I always give him the same "how could you FORGET?" clue. He just stares blankly. I crack myself up!

Never saw or knew there were other colors. Is the pink variety as fragrant?

 

[Nyboy]

Depends I have a very old variety of white that is heavily fragrant, pink no where near it. But pink does have a fragrance. A friend of mine worked in a very upscale florist shop in NYC. They would sell 5 stems of lily of the valley for $25 and sell out. People loved them in their bathrooms

The wild ones grow around here and very fragrant .I got one at the garden center and it was pink and to me it had no smell and sad to say it did not come back the next year .I mulched it well like the garden center said to protect the roots from freezing ,but did not work
