Borage in container |
I read that Borage can't be transplanted, so needs to be grown from seed
in situ. This plant was at the local farmer's market in a small container. Looked droopy. I planted in a larger container, gave some TLC (code name for Miracle-Gro 1/4 teaspoon per gallon, with each watering) and had it on the deck. It filled in and now is covered with flower buds.
Since it survived that transplanting, I think it will survive being planted in the iris bed. I was gentle with flipping it out if the pot. Tried not to disturb roots.
I read this is a great bee plant. There are others nearby, almost in bloom. This was a challenge I wanted to try.
