 Self-seeded annual Borage is growing among the Jerusalem Artichokes I planted on the allotment. Actually I was expecting Borage in the adjacent bed which was a mass of it last year. Mysteriously only one has appeared there and the rest next door. Seems to be a happy accident because the Artichoke stems will grow to 8 or 10 foot tall whereas the Borage is bushy.
