Comfrey

Perennial plant growing up to 3ft in height. Stems are branches and hairy with oval hairy leaves. It has small blooms, drooping bells that range in color from white to blue. Its roots are woody, thick and deep reaching. They are brown to black externally and grayish internally, very wrinkly too.

Native to Europe but naturalized in America, this plant loves the sun! Its deep reaching roots penetrate into the earth bringing up the nutrients buried there. They also remove toxins from the soil making comfrey great in remediation efforts.
