Product description

Borage (Borago officinalis)

Borage is a plant native to the Mediterranean zone, but grown in many northern European gardens for its starshaped flowers and tasty leaves. Borage has a mild diuretic, anti-inflammatory, sedative and bactericidal effect. It is used both in the form of infusions and seed oil. Young, still hairless leaves can be added to the salad. Flowers are also edible so don’t hesitate to use them us cake or lemonade decoration.
Borage likes sunny or semi-shaded locations, sheltered from strong winds. Will grow great in nutrient-rich, moist but well-drained soil. It can also be grown in large pots on the balcony.
