Product details
Beautiful, edible, versatile and so easy to grow.
This enthusiastic plant overflows with blue starflowers that bees positively adore. The flowers taste like honeysuckle and cucumber and look great frozen in ice cubes. Mix them with lemon juice and they magically turn pink! In medieval times knights would drink wine flavored with borage before going on their missions because the plant was thought to cheer the heart and bring courage. In modern-day Spain borage's leaves are sautéed and eaten alongside boiled potatoes.
Direct sow in direct sun year-round. The seeds will germinate when soil warms.
About the producer
Bria Phillips wanted to share her love of gardening with her three-year-old son, George, and other young gardeners, so she created Orange Pippins. She began curating seed kits filled with flowers and vegetables chosen for their ease of growing, impressive results, and delicious flavors.
Since then, Bria has navigated a move, a global pandemic, and the arrival of George’s baby sister, Grace. She still handpicks each variety of seeds in her products, from treasured heirloom varieties to exciting new varieties. Her passion remains getting new people into gardening and spreading the word that seeds are far more than tiny plants waiting to happen.
