I have grown borage in containers.. and it did ok..
But this year I planted it in the new hexagonal veggie/herb garden..
Who knew it would take on gargantuan proportions?
Against the blue sky it is aboslutely beautiful and grows like a bush..the above are daylight shots..but at dusk..the other night..it was so pretty..a different hue..bottom pic..
All this to say..apparently borage is great to grow in a garden..it enriches the soil..the flowers are edible and totally photogenic..and I would not hesitate to use it as a blue annual in a bed somewhere now that I see what it can do!
I love putting it on salad..on anything! Yes it is that pretty♥
A mom..of one of the students in my daughter's kindergarden class.. has an olive grove in Greece..
they bottle the oil..under their brand name of Zoe..along w/ other products..and Mylène bought Caroline and I each a set..the oil and the white balsamic..delicious!
I will buy again..
I made a simple vinaigrette w/ both to dress our salads..
that's my spinach:) and my swiss chard Bright Lights:) nasturtiums and their leaves are great edibles too~ as well as feverfew..
I have cut my garlic scapes:)
That means ..the garlic is not that far off:)
PS Saw a cute movie.. MAX..about a dog..a great dog..a lovely family..war..
it is exciting..moving..teaches values..
All my married life..I saw very few movies at the cinema..I have seen more with the Littles than on our own..
I always say:"On a scale of 1 to 10..10 being the best..1 being the worst..what do you give this one?"
Of course I have started that w/ the boys:)
All 3 gave it a 10.
Don't read the reviews.. geesh..I cannot believe reviewers don't like feel good movies..
To quote a review..and I thought this..on my own..in the cinema..It's Lassie and Rin Tin Tin♥
If you love a pet..you will love this movie..suitable for kids!
This coming week..is Canada Day..July 1st...and the 4th of July..(Noah's Birthday:))
Enjoy!
