Our native iris have already set seed, but how fun that your iris are still in bloom! As for comfrey, lovely flowers...clearly one to add to our bee garden!

Great shot's of your irises! I added comfrey around my garden this year to attract bee's. Sure has done the job.

Wow, thanks for identifying comfrey...I have relegated this gigantic plant to the nether area of the yard...it is over 6 feet tall and seems to spread. It even tolerates a great amount of shade, where it only gets light from the north.

Comfrey gel is a natural healing balm for sprains and strains, and, called "bone knit," is a mender of broken bones--a common equestrian treatment for shin splints.
