The.comfrey propagation experiment is working out really well. The entire gutter was filled with fine roots with new plants emerging every week. I took 2/3 of the plants out and put them into a nook in the yard between some trees.
I gave several to friends and called it the cow manure plant after the way comfrey tea smells while fermenting. To a fertile future!

When you make it yourself, you know what's in it. In this case, it's olive oil, #beeswax, #comfrey, and #chamomile. #Relief

Bees love it, too. 🌿💕🐝✨

I was trimming the comfrey at my community garden plot this morning, and realized one of the cut parts had a metamorphosing ladybug! So I took some home to let the bug morph.
So far, it’s the year of the ladybug for me. My plants need them for sure!

There’s a large patch of #tuberous #comfrey in the #woodland. This is a very interesting plant as it was originally recorded as being native to #Scotland where it is thought to have originated as a #medicinal #plant.

Comfrey leaves and flowers. I love how a freshly torn comfrey leaf smells like cucumber. #Wisconsin #Mazomanie #DroughtTolerant #Comfrey #GardenersOfMastodon #PlantSmells

April is the month that #KiftsgateCourtGarden is closed on Thursdays so I went up to #NTHidcote nearby.
These Persian Fritillaries are striking in the wilderness area. It seems Hidcote might have an issue with 🦌 because much of their wild area planting is stuff like #Comfrey and these things that deer and rabbits leave alone.

In today’s #SpringWatch observations, my first sighting of common comfrey in flower. One small patch has appeared next to a daily used path. #Wildflowers #Comfrey

#Elderberry is pretty well established. Gonna take some cuttings of that here in a week or so. Been taking about 1 Tbsp of elderberry syrup every once in a while, whenever I feel like I'm coming down with something. It's worked so far.
I think the #Comfrey (Bocking 14) is established now. I put some live roots in the ground this fall and I saw a sprout in one of the spots where it was planted during this warm spell.
I put some #Ginseng seeds under some leaf mulch, hoping for the best. Who knows. I think squirrels are gonna find them though.
Haven't had luck with #yarrow yet. #Calendula got too hot that one year and kinda bleached.
It's tough. This soil is so full of clay and the weather seems to get too hot too fast.

Which is fine, I don't mind giving #hay and sharing my own greens, and #foraging , even in #winter . I'll totally divide the #Comfrey in #spring and let our #Asters go wild.
But he won't drink, and I don't want him to urinate cement...

The type that self-seeds can be a bit much, but you can turn it all into comfrey tea, if that's any good? Info about it here https://www.permaculture.co.uk/articles/comfrey-its-history-uses-benefits
