Overview

Borage flowers and leaves are edible, with a taste that many compare to a cucumber. It can be eaten raw in salads, mixed into soups and stews or even used as a garnish. It has been used for centuries as a natural medicine to support aid, digestion, and reduce inflamation.

Conditions

Select a sunny location (6+ hours of direct sunlight), with well-drained soil.

Planting

Plant seeds in early spring or late summer (Use our grow calendar tool to find specific planting dates for your region!), outdoors in groups of 2–3, spacing them 12–18 inches apart. Thin to the one strongest seedling per group when plants are a few inches tall.

Care

Maintain consistent soil moisture, avoiding over watering. Borage is a hardy and self-sufficient plant, requiring minimal care. Prune spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Borage is a self-seeding annual, so once established, it will often return each year.

Pets and Disease

Borage is not affected by serious pest or disease issues. Look for aphids, slugs, snails, and leaf-mining flies that may damage the foliage. The herb may get powdery mildew once they have flowered.

Harvest

Once borage matures, harvest the leaves and flowers as needed. The plant leaves do not dry well, so use them fresh. Pick the flowers before they have fully bloomed, and when harvesting, remove the leaves and flowers from the plant with your fingers or with scissors.

Disappointed
Color: S6-muti-color
These were great for about 20 minutes then they stopped squeaking...we have 2 left that I have saved but the other 4 do not squeak anymore...disappointed as my dog loves to squeak things...would not buy these again...My dog is only an 8lb dog too...but he can still play with the balls without the squeak...

Great Value for a ball my dog loves!
Color: S6-muti-color
I wish these ball were in the subscription program! My dog gets sooo excited by the new ball, but her interest in things lasts for a few days. She kills the squeak within 11minutes, but the squeaker stays in place rather than becoming a chocking or swallow hazard, and she still loves to chew it. Next, we must throw the ball approximately 723 times the first day, possibly 496 times on day 2, and just 3- 4 on day 3, at which point she will chase the ball before hollering "it's over here if you need it," while she checks on the chipmunk den. We currently have 17 of these balls in our yard (because we have given several leftovers to a less discriminating doodle next door). These balls hold up really well, get her extremely active for the first couple of days, and are a much cheaper than doggie daycare (after an active morning with a new ball, she is happy to chew on it and sleep much of the day). I always have these on hand!

Pieces chewed off
Color: white & green
My Aussiedoodle loves it. I throw it down the hallway, it bounces crazy, and he chases it. The only complaint is that he can't chew much of the ball part. So now I have to have it put away and brought out for special playtime.

Heavy duty!
Style: Lavender Vanilla Bliss
Super strong and thick bags! I was worried about leaks or punctures with heavy garbage, but these have handled everything perfectly. The drawstrings are also very sturdy and don't rip out when lifting the bag. The pleasant scent is an added bonus!
