      What an answer! Just shows what they are about profit, and the veg plants they sell are just another group of plants to them. Sorry rant over.

      The web add that Pete has directed you too is a good one, i got my comfrey from them.

        Its available on eBay (as are most things it seems)
        You need to check your spelling though or you'll not find it ... you want Bocking 14, accept no substitutions. The 'wild' comfrey will seed itself all over your plot, while Bocking stays where its put
        Good luck, its fabulous stuff

          Hi Murfe, and welcome to the vine.
          Before you go buying comfrey, why not talk to your lottie neighbours - it's quite probable that theyv'e got some seedlings to spare. We discovered that nearly all the lotties on our site have it and people are willing to share.
          You may only find one to two of the old boys around at the moment, but do talk to them.

              I agree with the garden centre, I have sourced two large areas of comfrey when it has grown to a nice size I take a few sacks and cut as much as I want dont have to worry about giving up part of my plot where I can grow something to eat.
