Borago officinalis
Borage is an annual that is native to Europe and the Middle East. Plants are large and sprawling, and the leaves are covered with bristly hairs. Young borage leaves are eaten like spinach, and the blue flowers are edible too. Borage is also known as bee's bread because honey bees love the nectar.
