I started these Comfrey plants from roots three weeks ago. Only 25-30% of them are up so far, but some are already pretty big. The soil is very heavy clay, not amended in any way.

Nice. Those are bigger than any of the comfrey plants I have growing from previous years -- either sourced from you or planted from seed.
