Plant of the Day

Tuesday 7 November 2023

A close relative of devil's bit scabious Succisella inflexa (Southern succisella) is popular with pollinators. It thrives in a moist soil in sun or partial shade.  The long spreading branches produce an airiness to a display allowing the plants behind to be seen.

These glittering stars in flower form are Borage (Borago officinalis). 

The borage is a useful addition to a kitchen garden because it attracts pollinators and the bright blue, star shaped flowers are edible. These flowers make a striking addition to salads and sweets, and their colour changes from blue to light purple over the course of the day. 

The scientific name “officinalis” means the plant has medicinal properties. However, modern medical research is yet to prove that various parts of the borage can treat the wide range of medical issues herbal medicine traditions ascribed to the plant.

Aster × frikartii

Aster × frikartii and Jewelweed Fall is coming faster, so take time to enjoy the aster. Earlier this month I wrote about wood asters. Asters are in the same family as yarrow, sunflowers and chrysanthemums.

With the days getting longer I've popped into the garden right after work a few days this past week. Feels good to put in a few minutes of attention into the garden before heading inside.

Eurybia divaricata In Zone 6B this is the time of wood asters, late summer to fall-flowering herbaceous perennials that many mistake for weeds. They thrive in dry shade and are more widespread than usual this year due to frequent and much appreciated rainfall, which has been beneficial for a variety of insects and wildlife. The pollinator friendly flowers support bees and butterflies, the seeds…
