Overall: Before I married my mum and I used to have this in our garden and I always loved it, the scent is glorious. 25 years on I have just pricked out seedlings of it which I sowed in early April, I can't wait for it to naturalize, a beautiful plant, its loved by pollinating insects too.

Overall: I grew blue flowered Borage from seed a few years ago, it proved to be very easy, self seeded prolifically and the bees loved it. I am about to grow it again for the first time since moving here nearly 11 years ago. I'm also sowing some white flowered Borage this year as I've never grown it before.

Overall: I love Rudbeckia's and have grown some from seed this year. I was hoping to grow them as perennials but i'm not sure now as the article above says to grow them as half hardy annuals, any advice on this please?
