Borage Seeds
🚚 FREE SHIPPING for all orders over $79!
Borage is a vigorous, fast-growing herb that brings utility and beauty to the garden. Its star-shaped blue flowers, with the occasional pink bloom, taste subtly of cucumber and make a striking garnish for salads, cold drinks, and desserts. The fuzzy leaves and stems are also edible—traditionally used in teas or chopped young into summer dishes.
Plants grow large and branch freely, producing hundreds of flowers over a long season and drawing bees and butterflies in droves. Borage is a reliable companion plant, known to benefit nearby crops like tomatoes and squash. Easy to grow, quick to impress, and a favorite for pollinator strips and edible landscaping alike.

We stand behind every packet we sell. Our seeds are carefully selected, tested for germination, untreated, and guaranteed to be true to variety.
Your seeds are covered for one year from the date of purchase. If they fail to germinate under reasonable growing conditions, arrive damaged, or do not grow true to type, contact us and we’ll make it right with a replacement, store credit, or refund.
Plant seeds directly in the garden after average last frost date when soil has warmed up. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 60-80°f. Or, start seed indoors 3-5 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Transplant to the garden 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date. Borage is sensitive to transplant shock so carefully set in the garden. Harvest borage as it begins to flower. Dry under moderate heat with good air circulation.
