Forage for borage by judithg

Forage for borage

I am constantly at war with borage but I have to admit that in January & February it's about the only source of greenery for the hens. At this time of year its spiky stems are best avoided unless you've got your gloves on.

I will post a few photos of Adams art next week after the examiners have been round - I had a sudden panic that there are rules about it. I didn't take any decent photos yesterday as there were crowds of people and a queue to get in and out of Adam's display (which was nice). I generally only encounter hockey parents at Adam's school but at the art exhibition it often seems like a trawl through my past life - there was art work from the son of the obstetrician involved in Adam's delivery (in fact Adam designed the invitations and used his artwork which wasn't something I imagined at the time), the daughter of one of my old bosses when I worked in biotech (fabulous painting) and the son of one of my ex-colleagues. It was lovely to see them.
Got to dash - Murray's having a resurgence!
Pretty capture, like the focus

Would love to see Adams art work.....I have never seen proper art work done by someone really good who is taking art as a future career ......will be so much advanced since our school art lessons! I do not know Borage....have heard of it but never as far as I know seen it....pretty blue flower!

Gorgeous colour. I love borage - but I don't have to battle with in the garden. Perhaps you can make borage tea?

@happypat well I can't guarantee that you'll have seen proper artwork after I've posted Pat!

Super focus on the blue flower. Your composition looks like the letter "K". I'm thinking alphabet art with flowers . . .

Not just the perfect focus on that one flower but the rest of the plant features in this great photo! fav

Beautiful dof. The water droplets in the background really pick up the sunlight. Great job.

Is that what it is. It's in my yard too.

Perfect focus on the little blue flower, and I just love the bokeh on the rest of the plant! Yes, borage is pretty invasive.....I used to have it in my yard, and it was ready to take over until I pulled it out....very pretty, though....FAV on this one!!
