Myosotis exarrhena (sweet forgetmenot)
is a uncommon, erect herbaceous native species that grows
on rocky subalpine slopes.
It has conspicuous white flowers in a one sided
cyme (it unwinds like a bishops crozier). The flowers are
pale white or blue, with scales at the throat of the
corolla tube and with anthers protruding.
The leaves are hairy and typically 5-10 cm long
and up to about 1cm wide. There is usually a cluster of
leaves at the base and scattered leaves up the stems.
