THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THIS CHANNEL!! - Навчання та стиль
One of my favourite flowers! I think I read somewhere that the nectar stores of borage refill faster than most other flowering plants (minutes rather than days) which is why the bees like them so much.
You have to do this only once in your lifetime, they will spread like weeds.
Indeed they do. I definitely recommend growing them in containers. :)
They taste amazing also. Love the sweet flowers.
Awesome! I recently bought Borage and 4/4 seeds have germinated. Never grown it before so this was a timely video!!
I’m here for that smile 😀, everything I learned about wonderful Borage is a bonus 🥰
Excellent video! Thanks for showing through the growth of the plant. Most people just plop them in the soil and nothing more for their videos. I'm growing this for the first time, so I found your video helpful.
Its Swedish name ”Gurkört” means cucumber herb :)
Thank you for the info. I just read online they taste similar to cucumbers. I just planted 4 seeds today. I can't wait for them to grow 😊
I like Borage. It’s long lasting plant
Thanks man. Just learned about Borage not long ago, and we're gonna see how well they do in their own element here in central Pennsylvania. Got some growing in pots as well, and even the seedlings seem very hardy.
I planted some years ago, never had to plant it again, they are like hollyhocks or sweet peas
Yum! I have used them as companion plants for strawberries but never knew they were edible! FILLING my straw bale garden with them this year because I’m studying companion planting and SO many plants benefit from them. Can’t wait. Thanks for all of this good info about starting them.
Persians have been using them for many centuries to make one of the main staple medicinal teas, it’s an excellent calming nervine for anxiety, often taken before bed and great for sickness / colds too
New subbie.. thanks for the info..
I'm in 9a coastal Florida area..old gardener coming back after years away from the soil!!
love the videos been watching for a while. I was worried when you didn't upload for a while glad your doing good hope everything is going great for you. thank you for the content and advice and help for me growing my garden
Hello sweet dear Lee .. so happy seeing you looking well.. thank you for sharing and yes these flowers are amazing ! Please take care and keep safe 👍🏻🥰🌹
Ha. I can’t believe I just purchased Borage seeds and here you are covering growing it. Wonderful.
Plenty of great info in this video! Thanks, Lee.
Thank you so much Lee .. lovely video 🌿
Thanks for the new video, Lee
This channel is so so wonderful! It’s so good to see you, as always 🤗
Love your enthusiasm and always a relaxing and interesting watch x
Brilliant thank you Lee - I will try these next year - looking forward to the borage video as I have some that has self seeded both in my garden & allotment.
Your video is amazing. PACKED with information and joy. I'll be coming back to watch more!
Thank you so much for this great Borage video!! 👍👍👍
WOW! I love your little watering bottle! Such a cool way to recycle!
Thank you for a wonderful video. I love Borage!
Beautiful! Well illustrated video and thanks for sharing!
This flower is very beautiful purple color , your bucket watering is lovely that you made by yourself from milk bottle , thanks for sharing to us such education video
This is a new plant I've wanted to try for a while now. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for this video.
Thankyou for your great video I have just planted my borage inthe garden and hopefully it will thrive well as it was dome grown and protected until I put it in the garden! I have put tulle and a garden guard on it to try deter the pests but unfortunately they seem to get through the barriers! wish me luck!!Jan from Vancouver Island BC Canada
Really enjoying your videos 👌
Thanks for sharing iv planted some this year I'll have flowers in late summer
One of my favorite herbs and most beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 👍
I love watching your video’s you always make it really informative and helpful for a newbie gardener like me thanks 👍
Agree with you he is informative on gardening work , happy gardening to you
An awesome vid - thanks so much
I LOVE borage!💙💜 They are one of the most beautiful flowers I have seen.🤗💚 Great information you provided! I really want to try some now. I also love your edible flowers playlist.
I started three plants from seed this year..they are doing great!
Wonderful content; thank you.
good to see you!! thanks for the borage 411.
I would love to see a garden tour!
Beautiful 🤩
Thank You Brother!
I love Borage
I've just subscribed, great video thank you
Great! Thank you!
I started four this year! Thank you!
I just sowed 4 seeds 😊
It gives good amounts of flowers.
i’m growing some borage as well! they kind of look like cucumbers lol!
Is such a enjoy to listen to you with all that good and direct information in a super rich content with lots and lots of valuable information. Now I definitely will give a try to the blue borage flowers. Everything for the bees! It will look gorgeous between the white callistemon and cosmos flowers or the yellow of the rudbeckias and pinkish zinnias, it will be amazing!
I grew this from seed recently to attract pollinators for my bottle gourds.👌
Awesome,
Groundhogs love Borage also.
looking forward to the comfrey video - have a couple of plants and use their leaves in the compost and also spread the leaves around the base of my tomatoes - have yet got to get a big bucket with a lid to make liquid fertilizer - one step at a time i guess - i have my borage seeds ready and waiting for the spring and i will pot them into a big planter i have - its winter for me way down south in new zealand - even got a light skiff of snow this morning - just wish it would snow properly
Love my borage
Some of my borage grew to 40+ cm then after it flowered the leaves started yellowing and dying. Now i know it was either spider mites or aphids. Great vid
Sangat bermanfaat cara menanam sayurannya
Semoga menjadi berkat buat semua orang
in algeria is a wild plant
Hi! I love your channel, thank you for sharing your great knowledgeable videos...they truly help me as a new gardener. I do have a question for you...I've been gathering rain water to use for watering my little herb and veggie pot grown small greenhouse garden and I noticed the water is a yellowish-green color (much like the water in this video you were using to water the seedlings)...is this normal? Thank for any advice/info. You are AWESOME and hope your health is doing better.
You decorate cakes? I'm impressed.
Another pest attracting plant are the nasturtiums. They were absolutely smothered in aphids didn't seem to affect them tho
I have loads around my pound and around the plot, they get HUGE
Wow
That reminds me, I have some borage seeds that I could germinate! Thanks for the reminder!
I wonder if you could use your awesome platform to promote the benefits of using peat free compost please! I’ve been asking all the zero waste influencers too.
I do indeed. This ones an older video but most of my newer videos include peat free. If you check out my "One Garden Brighton" video I was very excited to see them using peat free. :)
borage stans INCOMING jk lol i love borage too its one of my best producers 😅
What type of fertilizer do you recommend for getting the phosphorus?
👍👍👍
We had a borage plant in our herb border last year but I'm not sure it survived. Round about the same time a weird plant started growing next to it and it's now grown huge, early investigation seem to suggest this is some kind of ragwort (though it's not flowering so I'm not certain it is).
As a side note I hope UA-cam stopped shadowbanning you, I somehow missed this video when it posted 2 weeks ago but is now showing up on my feed so fingers crossed.
Can i grow they in tropical climate
Bought my 1st pack of seeds today as I read they refill their nectar the fastest and I just love providing for our pollinator friends. Keep em crossed for me! One question, thoughts on need for stratification first - yay or nay? Thanks in advance 😊
No need! They germinate extremely easily.
Can you plant seeds to germinate on windowsill in may?
Just be aware you'll have thousands of them come up every year after, and putting them in containers does not keep them contained. Kinda wish I had known that before I grew them. The bees do love them.
how long did this take?
💚💚💚💚💚💚❣️❣️
Hey brother! Would you happen to know why the one you're trimming grew upwards but the other ones are flat? I have seven I planted this year and I've never planted them before so I have no experience, but I've been puzzled at the very flat nature these plants seem to have. All of mine are laying flat on the ground and none of them have put up a stem or any flowers yet. I think I planted them around May 15th, so they're about 14 inches across from one leaf tip to the other, but they're not growing in height at all, they just keep rolling out new leaves from the center. So I was just curious why in your video you have one that seems to be growing tall and the other ones are flat like mine.
How do you deadhead borage please? Where to cut? Thank you
They are only produced in my garden to serve as a pollinator for the bees, not for my own consumption.😊 When I grow them, they grow tall and the stems are thick, but I have no idea how to support them.
My first time growing borage and my flowers are pink? Is this some natural variant or do you think they’re lacking something?
Damn I think I repotted too early. I love them while they were seedlings. I’m wondering if I can grow them as micro greens they smell so good like cucumbers.
Borage is not perennial but it is efficient self seeding plant
Any idea why my plants are too tall and spindly? I'm trying the seeds deeper in the soil.
Some nasty black eggs under my borage leaves. Spraying with Safer's Insecticide Soap and then mushing them!
Hi beautiful
Where can i get them on England
In the video you said they are perennial but they are not they just self seed right? Because everything I've read said they are annuals? But at 11:00 you said 'here is a plant from last year' so now im confused.
I've grown them from seed for the first time ever this year, they have just started flowering, they are excellent. I didnt realise how big they can get. I too grew mine in those exact yogurt pots :). Mine are riddled with aphids which I've just been smushing with my fingers or brushing off with a paint brush, so I'm going to try the water / eco soap spray trick.
I'm not sure where "everywhere" is but the 2nd, 3rd and 5th search on Google states that some varieties are perennial. I've also grown them as perennials and if they self seeded it wouldn't just be one plant in the same place each year. 😉
mình nghĩ trồng chậu to vì cây borage không thích thay chậu mà?
you should sell seeds and plant equipment
My dad's got greenfly on his pepper
Organic soapy water should fix that.
@@ProjectDiaries cheers mate
@@mrmawson2438 you're welcome mate.
...
I thought it was called borage with 2 'a's, not borage said like you're also saying porridge.
p.s. I've subbed :-)
Are you sure they are perennial? Not at all by the way. Actually, I like your videos, but this one…. Borage grows alone, even where you do not want. I just thrown few seeds in my garden, then for a few years I need to fight against its invasive nature
I think you just answered your own question. Grow then in containers as I suggested and dead head them before they go to seed.
🏳🏳🏳🍗🏳🏳🏳
how did you make that bottle with the shower spout on the top?
will it be easy to plant this in a guerrilla gardening project out in the wild?
Cool tips bro, and I may do that next year. God bless.
this year
next year you will wish you did it this year do it now
@@Aryescent Do I still have time to do it this year.. :)
@@GoodNewsGospel777 yes
Wow
