im sure if you go to your local allotment association , someone will give you a couple of roots,

The advantage of buying Comfrey rather than digging it up is that you should be able to get a sterile strain that won't seed all over the place, otherwise dig dig dig

I think the one recommended is Bocking variety.

Bocking 14

.... guess the other 13 were failures

Comfrey is wonderful stuff but make sure you plant it where you won't want to move it ever again. It has an incredibly long tap root and, like a dandelion, if you dig it out and leave a small piece IT WILL GROW! A friend gave me some dead looking bits of root and they all grew.

very true! When I took on my plot 8 years ago, I strimmed the lot flat and within 2 weeks I was knee high in a field of comfry! I've been digging it out ever since! The bonus is that I am never short of liquid feed
