## Overview

Ohio Heirloom Seeds offers 200+ heirloom borage seeds, known for their 85% germination rate and resilience in full sun (USDA zone 5+). This Mediterranean herb features edible cucumber-flavored leaves and star-shaped flowers, perfect for salads and attracting pollinators. Ideal as a companion plant for tomatoes and strawberries, borage supports a healthy, sustainable garden with self-seeding capabilities.

## Description

Borage, also known as starflower, is a mediterranean herb that has been in use for several thousand years. It is generally grown commercially for its medicinal seed oil, but the leaves add a great, healthy addition to a summer salad. The leaves have a distinct cucumber tastes, either fresh or dried. The flowers are edible too. Although considered to be an herb, Borage is often grown in vegetable gardens to attract pollinating insects; It is considered to be a good companion plant for tomatoes, squash and strawberries. I have also noticed that Borage is widely used to flavor pickles in Poland, and is used in sauces in the Rhine region of Germany. Direct seed in a sunny location, cover lightly, and keep moist. Tolerant to virtually any conditions.

Review: Great germination, good strong seedlings. - I planted about 15 of these expecting to get about half of those to germinate. Much to my surprise, 14 of them germinated. Most of the seedlings themselves have all been strong growers with only a few runts. I highly recommend these seeds. In all honesty, 200 seeds are way, way more than you'll ever need unless you plan on growing a ton of them or you plan on heavily thinning them out to get only the strongest of the bunch. These will self seed for the next season as well after they die off (they're annuals), so you likely won't need them later on once they're planted. Make sure to pair them with tomatoes as they're a complimentary plant that, supposedly, aides in providing better tasting tomatoes and keeping certain pests at bay.
Review: Fresh and 99% germination for me - Great seeds were fresh and young plants are looking healthy. Will buy from this seller over and over.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a perennial ?**
A: No, it's an annual. I've had one live to be almost two years old though... Also this seller sold me 200 crushed and rotten borage seeds...

**Q: How many grams in one package?**
A: I'm really not sure of the exact weight of the package - I believe it was one ounce so that would be about 28 grams.  I found quite a few crushed seeds that might have happened in shipping, however, the seeds are incredibly fertile and I was not disappointed.

**Q: Are these non-gmo?  i assume that they are, being heirloom but wanted to be sure.**
A: Yes, they are non-gmo.    -Mike

**Q: What is their grow zone? I live in zone 4 and want to make sure they’d survive.**
A: I live in central Wisconsin, which i believe is in zone 4 and these plants grew very well and reproduced on their own the next season.   This is a great plant for companion planting.

Great seeds were fresh and young plants are looking healthy. Will buy from this seller over and over.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Borage seeds for happy garden.
*by J***R on June 25, 2014*

There seeds came as ordered. They can on time. I planted them...about 1/2" to 1" in the soil...which I hadn't planted in before...just turned up regular yard soil and added some iron as we live in the southern Cascades at 4,300 ft elevation with rocky volcanic soil which has minimal nutrients as pine trees are the main natural compost making for acidic soil. The plants sprouted in about I week. All seeds came up. Plants are about 2 inches right now and flourishing with little fuss. I would have given a 5 star rating if the seed package had contained planting instructions...instead I had to wing it on planting depth and spacing and germination time. I am pleased with the product and would order from this company again...just would be nice to at least know planting depth.
