Borage:
... is a fantastic self seeding herb with beautiful blue flowers. It may be used as a "pot herb" ie added in reasonable bulk to savory dishes, mixed with spinach, and when chopped finely, added to salads or sandwiches. It is quite hairy but these hairs are not irritating to the mouth. The flavour of borage is similar to cucumber, and pea and borage soup is a classic combination! The flowers may be picked...

Potatoes ... HUMBLE POTATO INTRODUCTION Kingdom: Plantae Order: Solanales Family: Solanaceae Genus: Solanum Species: S. tuberosum Spud, Pomme de Terre, Tater, Murphy -whatever you call it where would we be without it?

Sunflowers ... Sunflowers are tall, thick stemmed flowers with a large head and bright yellow petals. They can grow up to at least 3 metres tall.

The colour is wonderful and bright. I don t know why but it s as if it is smiling. They are also quite personified, as they face the sun, and if you watch them over a day, the moving of their "heads" is quite dance like and interesting! ~~~EASE OF GROWTH~~~ Sunflowers are extremely easy to grow, just pop the seed in the soil, water regularly and withi...
