I planted some comfrey roots in a pot this winter with the plan to plant them in my garden in the spring. They were huge, beautiful plants, then I moved the plant outside, It is very windy here and the highs and lows vary a lot. It stressed the comfrey and they looked half dead. After a while, they started looking good, so I was planning on getting them into the garden this week after my last two weeks in which I was overwhelmed busy. We had a rain two nights ago that filled the pot to the top (I guess it didn't have a drain hole or the drain hole got plugged) and drowned my comfrey. I dumped the water out and am now waiting for the comfrey to hopefully come back again.

I will get this comfrey into my garden this summer. I will. I will.

I would be surprised if it doesn’t make it. When I move mine around sometimes the leaves get limp but they have always come back. I have two roots that I put in solo cups and just keep forgetting about that were full of water this morning πŸ˜‚ just dumped those out.

My comfrey is doing awesome i started a bunch from seed and it took off i also have cuttings from my last place tbat i planted under my apple trees and there all doing great the bumblebees love em haha now my echinacea on the other hand thats a sad story πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Its incredibly hard to kill im sure it will survive πŸ˜‚

One of the reasons I like it πŸ˜‚

Yes it really attracts the bees and hummingbirds here!
