Flora of Cornwall (1999)

The descriptive text, below the map, is from the Flora of Cornwall (1999), which was a Tetrad Atlas (the maps had 2km square dots or Tetrads). The map on this web page depicts the plant's distribution at the 1km square scale and shows the records made pre-2000 which were used in the 1999 Flora and those made since.

Myosotis ramosissima - Early Forget-me-not



Early Forget-me-not is abundant on sandy slopes in dune grassland and on low hedges affected by blown sand. It also occurs in sparsely-vegetated areas along coastal cliffs and on banks near the sea. Plants are occasionally found in open, sandy areas near the Camel Trail between Padstow and Wadebridge (SW97L). It is a common plant on the Isles of Scilly.
