Title: comfrey seeds
Post by: Nora42 on October 22, 2012, 17:42:47
Hi does anyone have any comfrey seeds they are willing to swap with me.
I have lots of veg seeds ready for next year so don't want to list them all but I don't really want to blag a freebie as I know that can offend.
let me know if this request is ok?
Nora

If you're on allotment site, I'd suggest you ask someone for a comfrey plant- it's so easy to divide and someone's sure to have some spare. If not, let me know and I'll send you a piece of mine. i got mine from another member here, so it seems the right thing to do!

Try to get the bocking 14 type as roots as it has sterile flowers and hence does not spread like wildfire.. .It has purple/mauve tubular flowers... not flat small blue daisy type flowers..

got the bocking 14 if you would like a plant.. i'll weigh it and find out how it costs to send (w/out the compost and pot to make it cheaper)
pm me if you're interested...
