Symphytum grandiflorum 'Wisely Blue' / Comfrey

This very hardy, vigorous deciduous perennial forms a dense carpet of lush green foliage from spring through to late autumn.

- In April and May, masses of red-tinted flower buds open to attractive soft-blue to white tubular bell-shaped flowers. 

- It thrives in most areas, from full sun to deep shade, and can make a fantastic groundcover under trees, while also working well in containers providing it is kept sufficiently watered. 

- These flowers are an absolute magnet for bumblebees and honey bees, and will be sure to draw in a wide range of pollinators to your garden. 

- Can be cut back hard after flowering to encourage a flush of new young foliage for the summer months.

- Can spread quite vigorously, so may need to be managed in more confined areas with restricted planting spaces.

- Known to have a range of herbal and medicinal uses.

- Height and Spread approx. 50cm x 75-90cm. 

- Supplied in a 9cm pot
