Borage is a wonderful plant grown for its medicinal value and as a delicious honey.
Borage is native to the Mediterranean and has naturalized in many other regions of the world.
Also commonly called starflower, it is as wonderful for your garden as it is to eat or use as medicine. It attracts hummingbirds and other pollinators and helps keep unwanted pests from growing vegetables.
The flowers are commonly used to decorate baked goods and added to beverages and enjoyed salads. They are high in vitamin C, A, and K.
Borage is famous for being high in GLA (Gamma-linolenic acid) and an important omega-6 fatty acid that helps regulate hormones and prevent inflammation.
