About this Product

We are confident our Borage Seeds will bring bees to your garden! This incredible herb/flower is a true gem for any garden. Just like sugar lures ants, the borage plant is an irresistible magnet for bees and pollinators of all kinds. In fact, it has earned the title of our number-one bee attractor. Plant it in the heart of your garden or along the edges, and watch as a swarm of beneficial insects graces your space. With increased pollination, you'll achieve bountiful yields of delicious garden fruits and veggies. Plus, the high bee traffic acts as a natural deterrent for harmful pests like cucumber beetles, gnats, and aphids. Towering above the rest at several feet tall, the borage boasts broad, deeply ridged leaves and beautiful star-shaped flowers. These blooms undergo a captivating color transition, from pink to purple, ultimately culminating in a dazzling blue hue. Catch one in the midst of its transformation, and you'll witness a mesmerizing combination of all these shades. What's more, every part of the borage plant is edible and offers a delightful cucumber-like taste. Explore the vast health benefits through a quick Google search - Etsy won't let me elaborate! The versatility of borage knows no bounds. Use it for teas, garnish, salads, and tinctures, or channel your inner Victorian and make fancy ice cubes for a touch of elegance. Growing this plant is an absolute breeze, and it only needs to be planted once. Come spring, you'll witness the sprouts emerging early, as borage happily braves cooler temperatures. We tend to strategically transplant these strong sprouts to create optimal bee-attracting zones. Not only is borage a visual delight in any garden, but it also thrives in various conditions. From partial sun to full sun, this plant will flourish in any soil type. It's so resilient that we've even discovered some growing out of rocks and topsoil. Embrace the beauty and benefits of borage in your garden today!

Meet the Maker

Welcome to Blue Pumpkin Seed Co.! My lifelong love of gardening, especially pumpkins, led me to create this company.

We started as a small family business on Etsy in 2020, sharing our passion for heirloom seeds. Over time, I took charge to ensure this labor of love would flourish. I'm thrilled to now offer you a carefully curated selection of seeds directly.

The wonder of watching a seed grow continues to inspire me. As a fellow gardener, I share the same excitement and joy for gardening as our customers do.
