Hi all, the borage from last year has self seeded like mad and the bees are loving it 💜 🐝🐝🐝💜 Hopefully the wind won't be as strong today ..... gardeners - always going on about the weather!! 😂😎 #earthday 🌏 #wildlifewednesday 🌏 #beefriendly 🌏 #bee🌎 #sunshine🌎 #purple 🌎#purplicious🌎

Morning Ange, I've done some borage seeds this year, I'm really looking forward to getting them in the ground 🙋💙💙

Morning Jane, oh fab! I usually just chuck them on the ground! 🤣 You're very good! Once you've got them growing in the borders they'll sort themselves out 💜🐝🦋 @pelly

Morning Ang 💙💙👍🏻

Morning Julie 🐝😊 @juliesgarden

I'm sure they will Ange 👍💙

Amazing!! No self seeded here just yet. 💙💙

Thanks, they will do! 😃 @midnightgardener

Cataloguing - more borage seeds - another easy one and #beefriendly 💜🐝 #borage

I've done these this year, they really are easy aren't they 🐝💙🐝

Yes they are - my kind of thing! @pelly

@anges I bought some Borage seeds too! Are you sowing directly in the ground outside or first inside?

I'm going to sow directly outside 😊 I've done that before, so easy! 👌 @carmen-sylva

@anges So happy to hear! Thanks, I’ll do the same. Around what time do you do this?

You can sow from March onwards. I'll be sowing mine in a week or two. I need to prepare the spot where I'm sowing them first as having a bit of a revamp. Also if you make 2 or 3 showings couple of weeks apart you'll have continuous flowers 👌💜💙💜😊 @carmen-sylva

@anges Thanks so much, will do!! 🐝💕💓😍

You're welcome 🐝💜😊 @carmen-sylva

Snap! 😉 the prettiest little flowers 💙

Yes, I agree and they seem to last forever 😊 @kez001uk

Beautiful and Bee friendly!! Yay!💛💛♥️♥️

Morning Ange. Thank you and you too 👋☺

@flof1952 Morning Pauline 💜💚💜

Morning again Ange, that’s such a beautiful sight 💜💚

@pelly Oh thanks Jane, I love borage even though it's a bit prickly 😁 needs a prettier name too 💜💚💜

You too Ang 💜

@juliesgarden Thanks Julie 💚💜💚

This was one of the first plants my son grew, he's growing them again this year at the age of 31 😁

Morning sooo pretty 😊😚😚

It was on my wish list but it seems to have disappeared so back on it goes 💙💙

@pelly 👍💜💙💜

@angiecrazycatlady Ah that's cool! 💙👍
September sunshine is the best 🌞 #borage
Such a pretty looking plant 😍🤩😍
Thanks Kerry, they're not as big as the monsters I grew earlier in the Summer 😀 @kez001uk
@anges they can be beasts but thankfully pretty ones 😛
