About Borage Plants

Borage (Borago officinalis) is a beautiful, multi-purpose herb known for its striking star-shaped blue flowers and mild cucumber flavor. This certified organic herb adds color, flavor, and pollinator appeal to your garden. Both the blossoms and young leaves are edible—use them fresh in salads, teas, and summer drinks, or freeze the flowers into decorative ice cubes for an herbal twist.

Loved by bees and gardeners alike, Borage makes an excellent companion plant, helping to improve pollination and attract beneficial insects. With its sprawling habit and constant blooms, it brings beauty and balance to vegetable plots, cottage gardens, and herb beds alike.

Easy Care Tips for Borage

Plant Borage in full sun with well-drained soil. This herb thrives with minimal effort—just water regularly during dry spells and avoid overly rich soil, which can lead to leggy growth. Borage is a self-seeding annual that often reappears year after year once established. Harvest young leaves for the best flavor, and pick flowers as they open to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season.
