Borage, or as it is popularly called, borage, is a herb that has been known since ancient times.
For some time, the plant was considered a weed, but the situation has changed, and now many gardeners grow borage, also known as starflower, as a useful crop.
If you haven't heard about the amazing properties of borage, it's time to change that.
The leaves and flowers of this plant not only can, but should be eaten - they contain a large amount of vitamins and microelements, primarily vitamin C and potassium.
And the taste of starflower is legendary – you’ve probably never heard such a rich cucumber aroma before.
Greens can be added to salads, soups, okroshka, meat sauces and minced meat, and also served with fish dishes.
The flowers are candied and eaten as candied fruit. They can also be an excellent addition to tea or refreshing drinks.
And for the plot, the borage as an active honey plant will bring considerable benefit: there will be no end to the bees flying around the blue, white, pink flowers.
