Back to buying optionsRussian Comfrey Live Root Cuttings – Bocking 14 Comfrey Roots | 10 Organic Root Cuttings | Symphytum × uplandicum | Permaculture & Compost Plant
Create a highly productive source of natural fertilizer with these live Bocking 14 Russian Comfrey root cuttings (Symphytum × uplandicum). Developed by Lawrence D. Hills through extensive trials in England, Bocking 14 has become the gold standard comfrey variety for organic gardening, permaculture systems, food forests, orchards, and regenerative agriculture.
This sterile Russian Comfrey cultivar is renowned for its ability to produce large quantities of nutrient-rich foliage several times per year. Its deep root system mines minerals from subsoil layers and concentrates them in the leaves, making comfrey one of the most valuable plants for sustainable fertility. The foliage can be used as mulch, compost activator, compost tea, liquid fertilizer, chop-and-drop material, and nutrient-rich additions to garden beds.
Bocking 14 is particularly valued for its exceptionally high potassium content, making it an excellent companion plant for fruit trees, berries, tomatoes, peppers, squash, and other heavy-feeding crops. Once established, comfrey requires minimal maintenance and can provide abundant biomass for many years.
