Tell me what is not to love about this plant? If you try I shall ignore you. I am smitten. This is why. The Latin name, Omphalodes cappadocica, is pure poetry, rolling off the tongue like golden syrup. The common name, navelwort, is always worthy of a chortle. The flower, as blue as an imagined spring morning, is pure perfection. Enough, in fact more than enough.
Omphalodes cappadocica – Navelwort
Off The Edge Gardening 
I agree this is such a wonderful little plant. I have clumps of it all along the edge of my borders and it spreads and flowers its heart out. The blue is more intense than forget-me-nots and they mix together beautifully. I buy it whenever I can. Can you lift and divide them or should I leave them alone??

Best to leave them alone as much as you can. When they get really overcrowded you can divide, but they might sulk a little, be warned!

As you shall, I won’t. Not that I could think of anything. I shall just stare at your navel and wonder what the wort does.

I’m immediately attracted to that blue, but a quick Google tells me it likes dampish s hady places, so it’s out for me.

Hey! You would ignore me for doing as you ask? Well, I won’t anyway. I really like the color. It looks like forget me not or houndstongue.
