Borago
''Borago'', or borage, is a genus of five species of herbs native to the Mediterranean, with one species, ''Borago officinalis'' cultivated and naturalized throughout the world. ==Uses== ''Borago officinalis'' is used medicinally, in companion planting, in cooking and as an oilseed. Cooked stalks are sometimes eaten as a vegetable. The large, hairy leaves taste mildly of cucumber, and star-shaped purple-blue flower are prized for their flavour. The leaves are often added to teas and salads, and the flowers have been added to wine (Borage has had a reputation to give one courage since Roman times). The flowers are highly attractive to bees. The hairs covering the plant are said to repel herbivores.
