Our bees work Borage feverishly from early morning until dark. The plants
start blooming by mid June and will bloom continuously until the first hard
freeze around the end of September.
I planted a bunch of plants on landscape fabric to catch and collect the
seed as it fell, but as it turns out the mice like the seed as much as the
bees like the flowers.
