COMFREY: WILD, NATIVE, INVASIVE (not Bocking #4)

Wild Comfrey with Blue Flowers

The photo to the left and the next photo down on the left were taken in early spring.

We sell this comfrey as well as the non-invasive Bocking #4.

This wild comfrey is very invasive. Once you plant it, it will spread rapidly and be difficult to get rid of. We once threw it into a compost pile to decompose, but it grew instead. It grew all around the pile and kept going.

The Bocking #4 that we sell is a sterile hybrid and is not invasive at all. But some people want a ground cover that will spread fast. It spreads by rhizomes.

We found it in the southern Appalachian Mountains so we are not sure of its exact scientific name. It is about half the size of Bocking #4 comfrey. It grows to about 2 feet tall. In most ways it is like Bocking #4. It is different from Bocking #4 because it has a shallow root system with no tap root. See other pages about comfrey to learn more about comfrey in general.
