Small flower id

Hi hope someone can tell me what this small flower is, it has too many petals for a forget-me-not which is what I thought it was.
Thank you

 

Yes, they look like forget-me-nots. Could you post a picture of the whole plant? How big is it? How big are the flowers? Is it a greenhouse plant?

 

As you can see from this picture, they are very small, it is not a greenhouse plant, sorry, I seem to have placed this in the wrong forum and I don't know how to move it.

 

Agree withSundrop.
Myosotis sp..probably Myosotis sylvatica...common name Forget me not.

myosotis sylvatica - Google Search

 

I thought that was what it is but I have never seen any with so many petals, very pretty.

 

Have seen a similar picture on Pinterest: Forget me not flowers <3. May be somebody on this forum with a background in botany will chime in with his/her opinion about those eight-petaled flowers?

Where have you got your plants from Heather81?

 

Yes the picture on Pinterest are the same. They are in Victoria, BC the city planted them so I have no idea where they got them.

 

Interesting write up here....
