Planting borage supports the All-Ireland Pollinator Plan, and it is also recommended by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) as a good plant for pollinators.
Irish grown seed. Contains: 6 grams to cover 2-4 m2
Why not also add some phacelia for a splash of purple in your garden.
To prepare soil for planting
First clear the site of weeds, stones and sticks. Turn the soil and break up any clods, then rake so that you have a fine crumbly surface. If your ground is heavy, or you do not want to or can’t turn the soil, then clear of weeds and add a 2-3 layer of sand, soil or compost, or a mix of these, to the surface. Rake over. Do not add fertilizer when planting borage or other wildflowers.
