Grow one of the most valuable plants for organic gardening with this live Bocking 14 Russian Comfrey root cutting (Symphytum × uplandicum). Developed by Lawrence D. Hills in England during the 1950s, Bocking 14 is the most widely recognized comfrey cultivar for permaculture, regenerative agriculture, compost production, and soil improvement.

This sterile variety is prized for its vigorous growth, deep roots, and exceptional ability to accumulate nutrients from deep within the soil profile. The large leafy plants produce abundant biomass that can be used as mulch, compost activator, liquid fertilizer, chop-and-drop material, and nutrient-rich additions to garden beds. Bocking 14 is especially valued for its high potassium content, making it a favorite among fruit growers, vegetable gardeners, and homesteaders.

Once established, Russian Comfrey becomes a long-lived perennial that can be harvested multiple times per growing season. It is an excellent companion plant for orchards, berry patches, food forests, and perennial gardens where it helps recycle nutrients and improve overall soil fertility.
