Default Unknown Ebay Plant

This plant was supposed to be from seeds from a so called Black Dragon Rose. Of course I found out rose seeds don't produce plants that may even look like the parent or be even a nice plant. As these started growing I soon realized that they weren't roses. But I haven't been able to identify what it is. Now that I finally got a flower, it may be easier, but as yet I haven't come across it. Anyway, the picture isn't great, but the flower seems to be unique. Any help with ID would be greatly appreciated so I know if it is an annual, perennial, or even what temperate zone it is native to.

I actually tried some more research and have decided the plant is borage.

Here is a photo from another source.
