Comfrey problem
« on: September 22, 2012, 21:54 »
I am moving plots, I was going to move my comfrey to the new plot next month. However, the lady i sublet the current half from has run a lawn mower over it so what is best to do, dig up the root & move now or wait for new leaves?

Just dig up the root dave, don't worry about new leaves, it usually takes very easily.

I have grown comfrey from just a tiny bit of root!

I bought some comfrey from ebay. It came as 1 inch long root segments. They all took no problem at all.
