dodge yes it's a herb.
Borage grows to a height of up to 1M.
It tastes like fresh cucumber and is used in salads, drinks and in soups. An infusion of the leaves makes a refreshing tea. The
flowers can be added to salads and make beautiful crystallised decorations for cakes and desserts.
Spearmint
If you grow it in your garden it tends to go all over the place.
It has a matted creeping root system, sends up erect, square stems to about 2 feet high.
It can become invasive, so
plant it in an area where it can be controlled and won't crowd out other garden
plants.
The leaves and
flowers are edible raw or cooked. A strong flavor, they are used in salads, flavouring cold soups, beverages and meats, together with thyme, spearmint is the most important culinary herb in Britain.
Sage
Sage Uses: In stuffings for poultry, fish, game and other meats; in sauces, soups and chowders, meat pies, sausage (so-sage!); in marinades; in barbecue sauces with rosemary and thyme. Use sparingly. For roast pork: with sharp knife, make slits in the skin 1/4-inch apart; brush with olive oil to which a handful of chopped or crushed leaves has been added. Excellent deep-fried as an appetizer or garnish (for chicken or pork, or squash soup), in Saltimbocca in which veal, prosciutto.
Hope that helps
