Hi,

What plant is this please, it is (currently) approx 3 foot tall with blue flowers. Many thanks.

They look like forget me knots but at three foot tall I'm not sure.

Hi, I think that's a forget-me-not.

I think its borage, are those leaves and stems prickly?

Sazbo · 11 June 2010 at 10:24AM

I think borage too

Not borage, the leaves and flowers are not big enough, or hairy enough, it does look more like a forget me not relative.

Hi,
Another vote for forget me not (mysotis) here, not borage, they have larger star shaped flowers

forget me nots for me mine are about the same size in our wild patch

Its Alkanet. The roots are used to make a red dye.

I'd say some type of forget me nots too.. looks a bit like Chinese Forget me nots but the leaves are too fat...

The stem and leaves are prickly but not too sharpe.

Thank you
