You can also use 'Russian Comfrey' (Symphytum × uplandicum) - the type that seeds but you need to cut it before it sets seed. I have Russian Comfrey and Bocking 14 selection and find 'Russian Comfrey' is more vigorous than the Bocking 14. I get four or five cuttings of this a year, the first couple of cuttings I use to make a liquid fertilizer, then the next cuttings go into the compost bins.
