BORAGE

Annual

Hundreds of edible vivid blue flowers atop large, fuzzy leaves that are a major bee attractor.  The entire plant exudes a beautiful cucumber scent, with a light cucumber flavour in the star shaped flowers, which make a great addition to salads and drinks.  Borage is an easy to grow cool season herb with a long harvest period and deer resistance.
