Relating to or resembling plants of the borage family; having characteristics of boraginaceous plants.
From 'borago' (borage plant) + '-aceous/-ious' (botanical adjective suffix meaning 'of or relating to'). An alternate, less common form of 'boraginaceous.'
Scientific plant names can be spelled multiple ways—boragineous and boraginaceous both exist, showing how botanical Latin is still evolving and not perfectly standardized!
