Borago officinalis
HERB-BORAGE WHITE is the rare pure white form of Borage which is a famous old medicinal plant with a very rich history. The leaves and the flowers picked at the start of flowering & should be dried quickly. Borage is not a fussy plant, but the richer the soil, the bushier the plant will be. It prefers full sun, & needs protection from wind as it is easily blown over. Once growth is established, it will continue to seed itself. Place plants close together so they can support each other.
Scatter in spring or early autumn. Sow in rows. Pat down the soil, when big enough thin out leaving just the strongest seedlings.

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
