Part Used: Dried roots of Symphytum officinale
Description: Comfrey Root C/S is prepared from the mature roots of Symphytum officinale, a perennial herb native to Europe and parts of Asia and cultivated in temperate regions. The plant develops thick, cylindrical roots with a light brown exterior and fibrous interior. Roots are harvested when fully mature to ensure consistent size, density, and natural structure.
After harvesting, the roots are thoroughly cleaned to remove soil, fine rootlets, and impurities. They are then dried using controlled air-drying or low-temperature methods, which reduces moisture while preserving the natural colour, fibrous texture, and structural integrity of the roots. Once dried, the roots are cut and sifted into uniform pieces suitable for handling and blending.
The finished cut and sifted root pieces display a light to medium brown colour with firm, fibrous texture and visible cross-sections of the root interior. The uniform size ensures consistent presentation and ease of storage. The product retains the natural botanical identity and structural characteristics of comfrey roots.
Uses: Comfrey Root C/S is used in botanical craft projects, educational herb kits, decorative displays, potpourri-style mixtures, and creative applications requiring dried root material. The cut and sifted format allows easy handling and blending in formulations that highlight the natural texture, colour, and structural features of the comfrey root.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
