borage

plant

a 60-centimetre (2-foot), hairy, annual plant with large, rough, oblong leaves and loose, drooping clusters of starlike, bright blue flowers. It belongs to the family Boraginaceae. The five bright yellow stamens form a cone at the star centre. Flowers are sometimes white or rose, and flowering stalks are usually reddish.

The leaves of the borage plant have a cool, cucumber-like aroma and taste, and they are rich in calcium and potassium.
