I live in MN, and the picture was taken today. Should my Cumfrey look this happy where it's at?
It's on a pasture with a creek running next to it with super-black dirt, and the rhubarb near it isn't doing nearly this well.
The posts behind it are bird house posts that are maybe 8 feet tall.
The leaning post is probably only being held up by cumfrey roots.
Does anyone know what bocking this is?

cumfrey looks happy to me
You can eat anything once, sometimes more than once.
My established comfrey is about 4 feet tall. I don't fertilize mine at all. Mine is even wider than yours. I think comfrey just likes to get big? My plants are 11 and 8 years old (planted on my kids' first birthdays).
I'm not sure what type of comfrey mine is (mine is blocking and has purple flowers, and I got it from a local permie and didn't ask what type it was). Hopefully someone else knows comfrey better and can tell you what type you have!
