(Borago officinalis) Beautiful, blue, star-shaped flowers hang in clusters on the 2-3' tall plants of this medicinal herb. Its leaves are covered with stiff white hairs that give the plant a wooly appearance. Bees love the abundant, bright, edible flowers, which are also great for candying and salads, or for floating in cool summer drinks. Plants self-sow readily. Annual.
