Comfrey (Symphytum officinale) is a fast-growing perennial herb prized for its deep roots and lush, broad leaves. Traditionally used in herbal medicine, it’s known for supporting skin and bone health when used externally. Comfrey is also a favorite among organic gardeners for making nutrient-rich compost tea and boosting soil fertility. Thriving in sun to partial shade, this hardy plant is ideal for cottage gardens, permaculture systems, or medicinal herb beds.

These plants are in 140mm sized pots
