  1. Well, since you can get pink Blueberries, I don't see why you can't have pink Borage flowers!

    1. It just seems to be the odd flower, mark. I’m waiting to see whether ther are blue and pink flowers on the same plant.

  2. My borage is both blue and pink. I love the flowers. My nieces think it is so cool to eat flowers. What do you do with your borage?

    1. We just grow then for the bees, Bonnie and don’t do anything else with them.

    1. The bees don’t seem to mind, Margaret. I thought it could be a hydrangea thing but they are in the same bed with the same soil.

  5. I've had pink borage flowers too, the bees don't seem to mind, they can't get enough of them. I've used the flowers in ice cubes, it makes them look really pretty.

    1. I've seen the ice cube idea, Jo, Do the flowers taste of anything?
