Symphytum tuberosum aka Tuberous Comfrey

Symphytum tuberosum, also known as the tuberous comfrey, belongs to the family Boraginaceae. This plant is highly resilient and can survive harsh winters in northern regions. The leaves and stems are covered in soft hair, and the leaves have pronounced veining. Unlike the purple-flowered Russian Comfrey, the flowers of the tuberous comfrey are a subtle creamy yellow color. This rare houseplant requires regular watering and should be placed in direct, long-lasting light no more than a foot away from a window. To thrive, tuberous comfrey needs well-draining soil.
