Myosotis macrosperma is an herbaceous annual. It blooms in the spring, where it produces a cyme of white flowers.^[3] It differs from the similar-looking Myosotis verna (which occupies much of the same geographic range) in several characters. Myosotis macrosperma can be distinguished by its longer inflorescence nodes, larger and more deciduous calyx, and larger mericarps.^[4]
