Last summer I planted starflower seeds. It has a beautiful blue flower. It is more commonly known as Borage. The blue leaves shine among the other flowers int he garden. It is a herb mentioned multiple times in the Bible. The official name is Borage officinalis.
Traditionally, Borago officinalis has been used ingastrointetsinal, respiratory and cardiac r disorders In the GI system it is used for colic, cramps and diarrhea. In the respiratoyr system I use it for asthma patients and patinets with infection of the brochioles.It is seen used as a diuretic. I combine it with other herbs for high blood pressure ( hypertension)
I have heard gardeners planbt borage near tomato plants as it can encourage its growth You will not be disappointed with this herb
