Comfrey is to be found in the old fountain in the main courtyard, in the flower bed along the front wall, and in the tropical planting bed at the south west corner of the upper (Qwe Qwe) pond. There are many varieties of Comfrey, but they are all quite aggressive growers, so we only put it where we want it to run, or where it can be contained.
