About

Omphalodes (navelwort) is a genus of flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae. It includes eleven species native to Europe and western Asia. In spring they produce blue or white flowers similar to forget-me-nots.

Both the Greek Omphalodes (navel-like) and the English "navelwort" refer to the shape of the seeds.
