Establish a thriving comfrey patch with these live Bocking 14 Russian Comfrey root cuttings (Symphytum × uplandicum), one of the most valuable plants for organic gardening and permaculture. Developed by Lawrence D. Hills in England, Bocking 14 is a sterile cultivar selected for exceptional vigor, high biomass production, and outstanding nutrient accumulation.
This remarkable perennial is prized by gardeners, homesteaders, orchardists, and regenerative farmers for its ability to mine nutrients from deep within the soil and concentrate them in its abundant foliage. The leaves can be harvested multiple times per season and used as mulch, compost activator, liquid fertilizer, compost tea ingredient, chop-and-drop mulch, and nutrient-rich soil amendments.
Bocking 14 is especially valued for its high potassium content, making it an ideal companion plant for fruit trees, berries, tomatoes, peppers, squash, and other heavy-feeding crops. Once established, comfrey becomes a long-lived and highly productive source of natural garden fertility that returns year after year.
