Product Description
Borage (Borago Officinalis)
Grow this decorative plant from Borage seeds. Borage herb seeds produce these beautiful star-shaped flowers and textured leaves. Borage herb benefits include beauty in the garden, attraction for bees and a great addition to summer drinks.
Borage Seeds - Blue
How To Grow Borage From Herb Seed:
Plant this unusual 24 inch annual herb for its pure ornamental value, to attract much-coveted bees to your garden, and to harvest for teas and other summer drinks. When young, the cucumber flavored leaves may be added to salads. The flowers (which are excellent for cutting and have a long vase-life) are used as garnishes (in cold drinks like ice tea and lemonade) or added to salads. Borage plants are also considered to be a great companion plant for vegetable gardens and orchards because of the attraction of bees to the blue flowers. Plant Borage seeds where pollination is needed!
Direct sow Borage seeds outdoors after danger of frost has passed. These herb seeds prefer fine, well-worked moist soil. Borage is considered to be a liberal self-sower, dropping its own herb seeds, so you can enjoy more plants next year.

These have been wonderful seeds really. Germination has been near perfect, though I failed at starting them indoors, they sprouted and just stagnated with cotyledons. They never grew their true leaves, and eventually just died. But outside they've done great. We had a rough spring that caused late planting so they're just now setting their second set of true leaves, but boy are these some big, healthy looking seedlings! Should I actually ever run out I would certainly buy them again from OutsidePride, I plan to order more seeds next year.
