Yup, that's forget-me-not. We have them all over our yard here in Boulder. They are a deeper blue here, but the heart-shaped leaf, shaped like a funnel, is the same.

They are very invasive, and we treat them as a weed. I have to wear gloves to pull them up, because the stems very quickly develop very sharp, small prickly thorns that break off and stay in my hands and fingers. And they itch for quite a while.

I think the other flower is a trillium, but I'm not certain about that.

Those Forget Me Not's grow wild here too. I don't have any on my property that I know of. The other is a Trillian. I have them growing all over my property. That is the only color I have though. I have been thinking of digging some of them up and making a small bed of them. One of my favorites.

Thanks for looking.
