Alaska's state flower, the diminutive Alpine forget-me-not (<i>Myosotis alpestris subsp. asiatica</i>*), grows well throughout Alaska in open, rocky places high in the mountains. You will see the alpine forget-me-not in midsummer, and perhaps one of several other varieties in Alaska (such as mountain and splendid forget-me-nots). Alpine Forget-me-nots belong to one of the few plant families that display true blue flowers.
* There is discrepancy among sources on the correct Latin name - the above is from United States Arboretum.
