Borage? Pretty herb and you can put the flowers in your Pimms Smile

Just googled Borage and that’s definitely it, thanks!

The old saying is borage for courage. Good for boosting mental health. Stick it in salads and drinks.

It is toxic in v v high dosages though so don't eat the entire field.

That’s good to hear as had a brand new garden which I have been developing into a cottage style garden over the past 5/6 years so clearly this is a tough little cookie to have survived!

Really does make a great garnish and is cheery and pleasant tasting. Can stick it on puddings too. Quite good with blackberries imho.
