My new colleague is an avid gardener and knows his stuff. He can rattle off plant names, plant species and sometimes the scientific family name of the plant type a particular plant comes from.
So when my mint plant started overgrowing its pot, I naturally offered him a cutting of it.
Gave it to him this morning.....and then chey!!!!
He told me that my plant was not a mint plant at all. It was a herb called Indian Borage.
And all these years I thought I was growing mint....-_-''
Bah.
And then I also discovered that there's actually a variegated version of the Indian Borage.
It looks absolutely gorgeous and I hope I can get my hands on it....But I have not seen it in the flower shops I go to....hmm...
