Hi, I am Persian and we do use borage tea for different uses, such as a stress reliever tea, we also brew it with lemon or dry lemon with honey/sugar or rock candy (crystalized sugar) or add these to our tea at the time of drinking it. Another reason to drink this tea is when we are overly tired or hyper and want to have a good sleep, then we take it after our dinner. it has a nice enjoyable flavor, thank you for sharing your info.

Thank you, I have tons and had no clue what to do with them.

Lol! My process is a little more cumbersome her in Australia. I need to soak the herbs for 10 min so all the jumping spiders can escape, then change the water a few times as I rinse the slug and snail trails off. Pat dry with paper towel before I dare dehydrate. 😝

The music is way too loud compared to the talking… I had to keep turning it up and down… Just thought you might like to know… But the borage part was very informative thank you

wow Ive never had problems with anything eating my lemon balm

[jjcevering]

I've heard the stalks taste good too

[artstamper]

I heard borage was a good plane for the garden so I planted a couple of seedlings in June. Now it's September and wanted to know if it was good for anything besides pollinating and a search turned up your video. I have a question about the flowers, though. I have a ton of closed flowers but noticed they only seen to open one at a time on an entire branch. It's going to take a really long time to collect enough flowers to be useful. Is that normal? It seems like the whole branch should pretty much open at one time. 🤔

The hairs are very spiky! How can you eat it them?

[alexandraderry]

I have been drying my borage flowers, to use later I’m wondering if you have dried them for tea or should it be only used fresh? And can I dehydrate the leaves for tea too? Thanks

[shadesofgreen]

can i have your cat please !! lol he's such a cutie pie

[Jerseyhighlander]

Curious if kitty ever grazes on the Borage? I know it's safe for dogs but not sure about cats...
