RE: Borage?

Great for tomatoes, great if you need bees around. Yes, it does reseed, even in the north, I'm in Buffalo and even see some coming up thru the crushed stone. This past year, some were loaded with black aphids, maybe they acted as a trap crop & therefore another positive? Pull out any reseeders you don't want as if they were weeds. It is a hard plant to contain the seeds, maybe if you grew it thru plastic mulch to catch them.

Any positive or negatives about companion planting borage with tomatoes?  I hear it readily seeds itself.  Does this cause any problems?  Thanks in advance.
