if anyone is interested here's a link to some of the herbal information about Borage http://www.herbs2000.com/herbs/herbs_borage.htm It's a very useful plant...i'll be ordering some seed soon!
The bees love this plant! In zone 6/7 reseeds on its own spring for another fall bloom. Save seeds from October bloom if you can. Blue star flowers are beeutiful!!
My honey bees don't work the borage, but the native bees sure love it. Borage will reseed itself readily if you let the seeds fall and over winter.
