The borage in our garden at the end of November continues to bloom. There are still bees that, continue to collect pollen.
The movements of the bees are already quite slow. At this time of year, most of them go into hibernation.
Now the seeds have formed, from which I started to collect so that we can have from this plant next season.
Apart from being a herb, sown in combination with certain plants, it improves their growth.
Next year, we plan to plant it in more of the beds, but mostly next to strawberries - it improves their taste and stimulates their growth and next to tomatoes - it can protect them from pests.
All season we use the leaves of the plant for mulching, and the whole plants are a very good addition to our compost - due to the high content of nutrients.
Thank you for stopping by!

Borage manages to spread itself everywhere here and I don't need to collect the seeds! It's a joyful, useful plant. I nibble on the flowers in the garden.
It's great that you have this useful plant in your garden. I've read that borage is self-sowing and easy to propagate, but we have this plant in our garden for the first time and I prefer to collect seeds. Have a wonderful Weekend @riverflows 🌞
