Hi there. I am looking to acquire Wild Comfrey for planting in my garden beds. Any idea where I can get some of this beautiful herb. I’d prefer the wild yellow flower type as that is kin to my area in Connecticut. Any help would be appreciated. Kind regards, Liz

Hi, Liz. I’m not aware of a yellow-blooming Cynoglossum species. I wonder if you may be referring to Symphytum tuberosum, which, according to the USDA Plants Database, is found in Connecticut (although non-native), and has yellow blossoms. And unfortunately I’m not able to help you with locating a place to purchase the plant; sorry.
