Forget me not

Just bought some seed and the packet says it's biennial? Not that it makes any difference I just didn't think it was! Can anyone confirm for me please. It is a bit of a generalisation but for a plant to flower in spring it really needs to be sown by tattianna

Is it a plant or a weed

is up to you, I love them and so do insects. The bugloss is covered in bees and butterflies when in flower. Then the seeds get eaten by the finches. They're both biennial so if you like them let them seed. by Rushie

Herbs

have a conservatory or greenhouse then put them in their, as annual and biennial herbs usually need warmer weather Thanks Ryan. I'll hold off for a while. I'd hold fire Kayfersmum, most of them are lovers of mild climes. Besides, there is snow and -5C by Kayfersmum
