Starflowers are the bestest.

And they taste like cucumbers.

I agree, it does tend to self-seed & get a bit bossy if it finds an agreeable spot. But on the other hand it's such an aesthetically appealing plant, it's hard for me to think of it as a "weed" per se ๐Ÿ˜‚ not to mention its various traditional herbal/medicinal uses - teas, salves, etc. Overall I'm definitely a fan.

I had a revelation in the garden and decided to make a big thing about it.

I'm growing borage for the first time. I picked up a plant at the library plant swap last month.

It's planted next to my tomatoes and it's grown almost a foot in the past week!

The blue flowers just started blooming. Any tips for growing or using it?

@greeen Dear green. . A marvellous gift. Tea, anti-inflam. (homeopathic) compost enhancer, pretty, home to the 'lower orders' of flora & fauna. 'twill also shield foxgloves, bluebells etc. as they come through. It has a tendancy to 'take over' once established but comes to no harm if 'taken back'. I wish you joy. Garden with love in your ๐Ÿ’– We are just custodians. ๐Ÿ’– xxP

Temperatures stayed below freezing all day, seems to have been a bit of a surprise for the flowers still trying to grow in the garden, though the seed heads were looking seasonal.
