Overview
Borage grows to be about 2’ tall with prolific star-shaped, blue blooms that open up in early to mid-summer. Plant this variety in your vegetable garden where it will attract bees and other pollinators to help increase your yields. Borage is an edible herb with a delightful cucumber scent; the leaves and flowers are great additions to simple salads and teas. It prefers full sun and once planted will self-seed, making it an easy and long-lasting addition to the garden. All of the seed we carry at American Meadows is non-GMO, neonicotinoid-free and guaranteed to grow.
