The message k
from "Sally Holmes" contains these words:

Borage? http://www.gardenguides.com/herbs/borage.htm and

The bees love the flowers. Apparently you can put the leaves in your Pimms
and scatter the flowers in salads for colour. You can buy the oil of its
seeds in the guise of starflower oil. It does seem to be fairly useful from
a herbal medicine point of view, but it self-seeds like mad.


You put the flowers in your Pimms - they taste of cucumber.
