So in the spring of 2018 I planted borage. They didn't get that big before they died back by July. But this winter I had several plants that came up from self sown seed. Beautiful big plants that my neighbors bees loved. I was going to collect seed this month as they are already dying back, but I was too late. I already have plants coming up again. I think I will transplant a few and see what happens over the rest of the summer. But to answer your question, i think they would do well in September.
The plant in the middle of the picture was borage on February. It more than doubled in size by May.
