Comfrey is one of nature's jewells . Besides having edible uses this herb is the organic gardeners greatest ally . The leaves of the Russian kind of Comfrey make some of the best liqiud manure available and the best bit of all ? It is free. Simply gather the leaves in big quantaties and squash them so that eventually the juice contained in the leaves comes out . This can then be diluted seven parts to one as it is pretty strong and used to feed crops and flowers all season long . As with anything in nature there is a downside . This is the liquid don't half pong . But hey it becomes an aquired smell ! Drain pipes and buckets or containers with a tap at the bottom are often used to store the leaves until they rot down . The plants themselves can get rampant and take up a fair bit of space but I for one would not want to be without this plant .
