I am looking for a bit of advice on planting a suitable flowering crop on my
12 acres in southern British Columbia. Borage seems to be a good contender
as it flowers for a long period and is self propagating. Winters are wet and
warm on the west coast ( Seattle like climate) and the bees are still
visiting the handfull of experimental borage plants that I planted in the
spring. Is this a good "bee" plant (they seem to like it) and where am I
able to get enough seeds for my needs? What does borage honey taste like?
Any other plants worthy of note? Seed availability?
 Has anyone done a study showing how many acres are needed to support a hive?
