I know this thread is quite old, but hopefully someone will reply. Is this bacterial wilt on my Borage? It looked perfectly healthy this morning, and it is not lacking water as it has rained on and off about 3 days in a row now.

Other causes of wilt: Over-watered plants have the same wilted leaves as under-watered plants. Fungi such as Phytophthora and Pythium affect vascular systems, which cause wilt.
I hope this is helpful. Hope you are able to save your borage plant.
