A little comfrey goes a long way

So I am about to embark on attempting to grow comfrey.  Why? you may ask!  Well comfrey is a fantastic plant that takes the nutrients out of the soil and into its leaves so you can use them for fertilizer or mulch, or just to make much better compost. It is deep rooted and in permaculture terms known as a dynamic accumulator as it mines nutrients from deep in the ground and draws them up to the surface.
