30+ True Comfrey Seeds - Symphytum officinale - Traditional Medicinal Plant

Description: The last photos show germination of seeds within 7 days of planting; sown November 20th and up and sprouting by Nov 27th!! And showing first set of true leaves December 8 2023. Very good germination rate and healthy sprouts. Due to the size of the seeds, additional shipping cost has been added to this specific seed listing. Comfrey has been used for centuries as a topical compress to help speed up healing. The name itself literally means "to knit together" as the leaves contain a substance known as alantoin. A must have for every apothecary garden, Comfrey is popularly traded among plant-folks via root divisions or root pieces as the main cultivar out there is sterile; with these seeds you are ensured that the plants grown will not be sterile, so for seed-savers this is the one to choose. The plant grows true from seed. Traditional usage: Cell proliferation, cuts, scrapes, deep injuries. Source of allantoin, mucopolysaccharides and also potentially toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids. Often recommended for external use only. Commonly employed as a companion plant to orchard trees and as an ingredient in compost tea and compost piles. High in protein, the leaves make a good feed for chickens and pigs, may be added to the feed of all domestic animals, helping maintain good health and weight gain. Comfrey prefers a full to part sun position with rich, moist, but well-drained soil. Sow the seed just under the surface and tamp in securely. Sown directly in warm soils, germination usually occurs within 30 days. A 30 day period of cold, moist refrigeration followed by planting in warm conditions will speed germination appreciably. Grow the seedlings out in pots for about 3 months, then transplant to the garden. You can also direct-seed into a fertile bed in the spring, as soon as the soil can be worked. If you don’t want the plants to spread, then cut them back when they make flowers, and mulch the crowns with the leaves. This will keep the seed from maturing and dropping, and will quickly improve the soil and contribute to the formation of large, healthy and happy plants.
