Borage – Seed Packet
ABOUT: Annual herb with star-shaped flowers of the purest sky blue. The Old Masters often chose this heavenly blue color to paint the Madonna’s robes.

HOW TO GROW: Sow the seeds thinly outdoors in spring or fall. Full sun & sandy soil are preferred, but partial shade and moist soil will do. Plant spacing: 9-12”. Plant reliably self sows once established (the plants in the video all self sowed)
