Symphytum officinale
Symphytum officinale is called common comfrey in Dutch. It is a deciduous perennial with a bushy upright but widely spread habit. The leaves are large, dark green, lanceolate and rough-haired. This comfrey flowers from May to July with very variably colored (pink, white, purple), bell-shaped flowers in hanging flower clusters. Symphytum officinale prefers a position in the sun or partial shade and neutral, moist soil. The plant has medicinal power and the leaf litter is a good compost activator. Common comfrey is hardy and, once established, also fairly drought tolerant. It is a good pregnancy plant for bees and can tolerate some air pollution as well.
