Borage.Yes I agree with Jude,It's a brilliant bee attracter for the runner bean row.

I thought the same before I looked at any other replies. I have a garden full of the stuff.

Oh rats, missed another puzzle! I agree with Chantal, once you have borage in you garden, you are never without it!!

I think it's foxglove. Are the leaves slightly fuzzy and the roots pretty shallow? The seeds of the flowers are thrown everywhere. Doesn't do much the first year, but second year will send out a big flower spike.

Hmm, could it be a mint?

(Mind you I can barely identify things I've planted! ) :oops:

Hi Peter,
Could be Borage and it could be one of the Mercury variety of weed and having just dealt with a load of Mint cuttings I kind of think it could be as Spud says.

I'm with the Spud. I think it's mint.

If it's not Borage, it could be a teasel.

Oh God the suspense is killing me!!!

I'm sticking with the Borage; I'd stake my sprouts on it (if I had any...)

When do we find out?
