At my place we call it "komkommerkruid", the leaves are tastfull in salads, even the flowers are eatable, so I guess noone, not even the boring nor the snoring, will die from Borage... =) Btw, lovely image.
DagEnDauw, welcome to Omnium, and dankje wel. Komkommerkruit – what lovely a word! Somehow delicious even. :) Thus, sorry for sending a mistress of a labyrinth on her first visit astray in the labyrinth of my thoughts. You are, of course, right. Borage/Borretsch/Komkommerkruit ist ein leckeres Kraut.
Gosh, three years passed by and only now I'm reading your answer. I had no clue I was here before, shame on me! Dutch, English, French, German, you speek several languages. Which one of them is your mothertongue if I may ask? I Apologize for my curiousity
Welcome, again, dear Dauw. Time flies, eh? As for your questions: My German is not too bad (mother tongue), my English improvable, my Dutch, French etc. not even rudimental.
This really made me smile!
ReplyDeleteGardens like this must be intoxicating to a bee.
ReplyDeleteA delightful photo :-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome presentation! :)
ReplyDeleteI can identify with that...
Syncopated Eyeball,
ReplyDeletewelcome to Omnium. To see your smile 's a pleasure for my eyes.
Stan,
bees do indeed seem to appreciate the more, the less I am able to interfere. It's a great joy to watch them and hear their humming.
CherryPie,
it's delightful to have eyes (still) being able to see and ears to hear and listen.
Claude,
as almost always: you got it.
That is, if I don't err. :)

Your English is better than mine ;-)
DeleteHa ha, CherryPie. How did you find your way to this "very old hread"?
DeleteBy the way, I do doubt what you've written. :)
I subscribe by email when I comment (occasionally I forget to click the box). So here I am ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have not been taught grammar and therefore I still maintain your English is better than mine :-)
Now: One day, hopefully we'll be able to discuss what you are "still maintaining". . . . Lovely to see you here, again, anyway, my dear.
DeleteReferring to a comment in another thread of yours this evening...
ReplyDeleteYES!! It would be lovely to meet and discuss, perhaps we can make that happen...
I am sure (if we do) we wouldn't be talking about the pedantics of grammar and language ;-)
