💡 Care Tip

Plant the crown cutting with its growing point just below the soil surface. Water thoroughly and keep the soil moist until new growth appears. Allow the plant to establish during its first growing season before harvesting leaves. Choose its location carefully because established comfrey develops deep roots and can be difficult to remove. Wear gloves when handling the leaves and stems, which may irritate the skin.
