Our Garden

We love it when interesting, mysterious plants show up in our garden. This one has been a real surprise. We've never seen (or maybe noticed) one like it and assume a visiting bird brought it our way. After a bit of research we've discovered that it is Borage, an interesting and helpful herb.

"Thinking back on my veggie gardens, I have always planted Borage. Somewhere along the way, someone made sure I knew how important it is as a garden addition. It attracts pollinators, is a beneficial companion plant, has nutritious edible leaves and flowers, is virtually pest free, and, as a bonus, it is a prolific self-seeder." The Backyard Gardener
