Tips & Advice:

Sowing Outdoors

Sow in well-drained soil that is weed-free and has been raked to a fine tilth, in a sunny position, lightly covering with a little more soil. Water as needed until established.

Thinning

When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin to 40cm apart.

Advice

Tastes like cucumber- perfect in summer drinks. Although Borage is an annual, it will grow again next year from the seeds it drops.
