Creates the most annual biomass of any terrestrial plant per sqft.

Pollinator haven due to hundreds of flowers.

~26% protein, Ruminants love it as part of their forage.

Green manure for compost.

Incredible wet mulch for your garden that should be "locked in" by covering with dry mulch - leaves / wood chips / grass clippings.

Can be used as a bone mend, and other medicinal properties.

Roots go down to ~2M so pulling nutrients from deep & you can use it to make a "wall" to lessen erosion & catch soil downhill.

🫡thanks for the download. Going to be planting some this year for sure

Awesome,

There's a few varieties of note:

Classic Comfrey: prolific and spreads - propagates from seed and root

Bocking #4: sterile seed, only propagates from root

Bocking #14: sterile seed, also only from root

I have the bottom two varieties of you need 🫡.

If you don't mind it spreading, which be mindful once comfrey is there it's almost impossible to kill, then go classic.
