American Speedwell, Veronica Americana

Day 250: Smaller than a Forget-me-not and much more widely distributed along thin stems, American Speedwell (aka American Brooklime) is vividly blue nonetheless. Its leaf is edible and can be used medicinally. The plant prefers to have its "feet" wet, and may often be found growing along streambanks or in ditches which remain wet for most of the year.
