Friday’s Seeds – Boraginaceae
I only have a small collection of genera/species from the Boraginaceae family. I must work better at this family, that’s for sure.
Here they are for now: Onosma, Omphalodes, Pulmonaria and something a bit more rare, Craniospermum.
And because species placed formerly in Hydrophyllaceae are now included in Boraginaceae, there is also Hydrophyllum.
For names, hover over images or click to open the gallery
Only one species/genus is shown, a couple more species are displayed in the new Boraginaceae page.
I had to google the craniospermum, then I had to google where they come from Tuva and Buryatiya. Not only a botany lesson but geography too!
Same here Gill; many times I get geography lessons and it is something I enjoy as much as the seeds :) Especially that I know I’ll never get to visit many
of those places.
