The listing, COMFREY SEEDS – Herb, Green Fertilizer, Medicinal Plant *8 Seeds* has ended.

I thought this was the last of the seeds, but my daughter found some we had put back to keep & we already have all we need...

Comfrey has been used as a healing herb for centuries. The comfrey herb is native to Asia and Europe, but early English immigrants brought it to North America for medicinal purposes. Common Comfrey, Latin name: Symphytum officinale, grows to be approximately 60 inches tall. It has slender lance-shaped leaves and produces bell-shaped purple flowers that bloom from May to September. Comfrey, even when grown from Comfrey seed, has a deep root system with thick dark-colored roots. Comfrey may have violet, pink or creamy yellow flowers.

Comfrey contains chemicals that speed up wound healing. It has astringent, antifungal and antibacterial properties. Comfrey also contains a wide variety of healthy chemicals and nutrients. It has been recently learned that it can be a carcinogenic when taken internally, but it is still used as a topical treatment for skin irritations, cuts, sprains and swelling.

I am not so sure they will grow from seeds. I have grown for years and ALWAYS share by sending root stock. Folks need to do some research before buying the seeds.

They grow just fine from seeds. That's where mine came from (30 new seedlings). You need to check YOUR facts before adding negativity to someone elses auction. By all means, everyone should check before bidding.
