Borage

Borago officinalis. Borage (Borago officinalis) is a versatile and easy-to-grow herb known for its striking blue, star-shaped flowers and edible leaves. Often grown for its medicinal and culinary uses, borage leaves have a cucumber-like flavor and are commonly used in salads, teas, and as a garnish. The vibrant flowers are not only beautiful but also attract pollinators such as bees, making it a great addition to any garden. Borage thrives in full sun, well-drained soil, and is often used in companion planting to enhance the growth of nearby vegetables. 

Borage is a good companion plant to strawberries, tomatoes, and spinach.
