Thank you for sharing. I bought these seeds recently, glad I did. Love taking care of the pollenators.. I don't drink alcohol but I drink teas I make daily. 🦋🐝🐞🥀🌱

Enjoying your unique site ,historical tie in information. Started borage seeds last spring. They self seeded starting late February. I'm in zone 4b, Colorado. Borage is homage to our pollinators, memorizing.
Very interesting information, but "not bad" is not the ringing endorsement I need in order to try it. 😁 What I'm interested in is what you do with it when it is finished for the season and how do you know when that is?
You grow borage mostly for your pollinators and for the role it plays in attracting beneficial pollinators for tomato plants, especially. When finished in the fall I throw the plants in my compost pile. I happen to enjoy its beautiful flowers throughout the summer. The role it plays in protecting tomato plants is what elevates it to great from not bad.
