Days to Maturity: 56 from direct sow

It makes strawberries fruit more heavily, keeps hornworms off the tomatoes, and increases yields of cucumbers, gourds, and other fruiting plants. Borage is more than just a pleasant edible herb. It's a garden guardian, and it belongs in your sunny annual bed as well as the vegetable patch and herb garden.

An annual (or biennial) with handsome small blue blooms as well as long, toothy leaves, Borage Seeds grow quickly and self-sows readily. It needs to be direct sown where it is to grow, because it forms a long taproot that does not transplant well. So after you've transplanted your tomatoes and set your strawberry runners, drop a few seeds in holes ¼ to ½ inch deep and spaced about a foot apart in full sun. Cover with ½-inch of soil, and within 2 weeks you will see green shoots.

Borage flowers in early to midsummer, and the blue blooms make lovely garnishes for salads and cakes. The young leaves have a cucumber flavor, and are quite edible as well, though they can become tougher with maturity. Try them in tea and in potpourri.

But aside from its culinary use, Borage is simply your fruit and vegetables' best friend. It is a bee magnet, and seems to repel several types of predatory pests while simultaneously welcoming "good bugs" into the garden. Strawberries are its boon companion, and it has been shown to increase the yields of this fruit. Tomatoes also benefit. There is simply no place in the sunny garden that borage shouldn't go.

This herb self-sows, so if you want to avoid unwanted seedlings in the spring, choose which plants you allow to go to seed. (Simply snip the bloomheads off the others and remove them from the garden, using the flowers as garnish or flavoring.) Let the others remain through fall, and nature will do the rest.

Borage reaches about 2 feet high, with 1½-inch star-shaped blooms of brilliant azure. We didn't even mention the reason many gardeners grow it: its beautiful ornamental appeal. An all-around must-have for any sunny garden spot.

Probably the coolest book ever!
Format: Board book
This book is so cool! I found out about this company a year ago when a family friend had one of their books and my son fell in love with it. My son loves trains so this was one of his gifts this year for Christmas. It comes with the wind-up train, as well as having 4 grooved different tracks inside the book that the train can drive along. You are also able to remove the track from the book. It’s a cool toy and an easy toy to take on the go.

Child loves it
Format: Board book
The 3 year old that got this gift slept with the book and the train. Per the parents "he had it in a death grip." This is so wonderful for fine motor skills. Also, the child can learn that it works better on a flat surface vs on an incline. It is being played with constantly. Will go back and look for others in the series.

Great product
Format: Board book
This book is so fun. My 2 & 4 year old love to play with it. The pages come out & connect like a puzzle which makes one huge track for the train to drive on. The only complaint is the book is already starting to rip after having it for less then a week.

Fantastic toy
Format: Board book
Such a perfect book for little train lovers. I don’t see any issues with it. My 3 year old son loves to read it every night. The train doesn’t really come off the track, but if I’m holding the book on my lap, I’ll move the book around to help it slide along. It’s bigger than I expected from the pictures, but that was definitely a good thing. So happy with this purchase.
