Ah, yes, I will most certainly show him. I need to get more borage. Mine went the same way as the melon pear, helped by a very efficient weeding person :( I have mentioned that borage is a great companion to sweet basil - it makes the basil flourish!

I decided to not replant borage next year.
When the plants are young, they are relatively soft and very delicious, but once they mature, they become very vicious. After last year's kiwano- and litchi tomato-adventure I swore I would ban all plants that were mean to me, no matter how delicious or useful they are ;0)
Hahaha! I completely understand. We are fortunate to have a fairly large garden and I relegate them to a bit where they can do their thing. Even more fortunate is a gardener once a week and I have the luxury (usually) of letting him deal with the vicious plants.
Hahaha, I should get myself one of those...
Oh, wait... I have one: since I'm still not able to do a lot myself (except watering with the hose), my girlfriend takes care of most of the things in the garden. Including taking out the most vicious borage plants 😂
