Our local farmer has planted 3 huge fields of Borage around Upham. They are now in flower and are magnificent! The blue/purple flowers contrasting against the green hedgerows and blue skies are a sight to behold. I asked George’s wife – Gina what he had planted them for and she told me that they are used in the making of Starflower oil. I had a look on Google to find out more about Starflower oil. It is used as an alternative to Evening Primrose Oil and can be beneficial in the treatment of skin disorders, PMS and other hormone related disorders. I think I feel better just looking at these gorgeous fields!
