A wonderful companion plant for both vegetable and flower gardens as well, attracting pollinators. Borage is an edible herb. The small tender leaves have a cucumber taste snd this herb presents with gorgeous blue star shaped flowers. The flowers can be added to salads or brush them with a sugar water solution, allow to dry and use on cupcakes wedding cakes etc.

Borage is also a "trap plant" for aphids.  It doesn't attract aphids, but they do tend to congregate on borage leaves before attacking tomatoes and other veggies, making an impending infestation easy to spot and giving you the chance to wipe down or spray with an organic insecticide before they start to spread to harder to target areas.
