Sometimes I think about it, I like the flowers for salads and cake toppings, but your post has made me think otherwise! Wow, sorry you had that allergic reaction. Nutty! <em>Hi Karen, Despite its over zealous reseeding in my garden I would not do without Borage because it does such an amazing job at attracting beneficial insects. I wish I did not react to it the way I do though as pulling it up when it is done for the year is not much fun for me! Long sleeves and pants are a must! -Cynthia</em> I am reading your archives because I’m too impatient to wait for your next post. :) My mom has a lot of borage but I have never planted it.

It must be the hairy leaves as the <a href="http://brambleberriesintherain.com/?p=110" rel="nofollow">radishes</a> I picked today bothered my skin as well. Guess I need to garden in long sleeves.... Thank you for the compliment, your blog has beautiful photos! :-) Karen- It is weird because I seem to be getting worse each year with my reaction to the borage.
