(Symphytum officinale) See Image, which shows this patch in the foreground, for more context. In the present view, and likewise included to provide some identifiable context, is Image on the other bank of the Leven. The plant itself has long "wings" (flange-like features) running down the stem from the point of attachment of the leaves. In this and other respects, it differs from Image (shown further downriver). Some other Comfrey species or hybrids are commonly encountered.
