Description

Sky-blue, star shaped blossoms are a magnet for honey bees. Leaves and edible flowers have a mild cucumber flavor. Also known as bee bread, borage attracts a wide array of pollinating insects. Very easy to grow, and can withstand poor, dry soil. Packet is 0.75g.

Sow directly in average, well-drained soil in spring after all danger of frost has passed. Grows best in full sun. Borage reseeds freely and spreads vigorously.

Flowers and leaves can be picked anytime for fresh use. Freeze flowers in ice cubes to add sparkle and flavor to summer beverages.
