Symphytum caucasicum   Caucasian Comfrey I

Symphytum caucasium

Stace describes this introduction from the Caucasus as often not persisting but at this site it has been present for thirty years to my knowledge. It is the same colour as the Pentaglottis sempervirens (Green Alkanet) which grows nearby so it is easy to miss.

There isn't very much of this plant in the British Isles but it is dotted here and there in England and Wales with just two sites in Scotland and none in Ireland.
