I haven't had any borage for quite a few years, but have some seeds started in the greenhouse which hopefully won't mind too much being transplanted... the last time I grew it, the plants became completely infested with some not-very-attractive caterpillars Sticking tongue out . So I sprayed them with BT, and ended up pulling out the plants because they had been pretty well demolished -- and then discovered they were Painted Lady babies Crying . This year the borage will all be going in my "butterfly garden," so no spraying of the butterfly babies!
