I believe so- I've mixed it with comfrey but the smell would fell an elephant from 100 yards!

lol, that's why I make mine in Paul's garden, right at the bottom. My excuse is that the comfrey was / is growing in his garden :-D
Are you aware of how rampant comfrey is when it becomes established? Paul is a car enthusiast so a tyre is an appropriate container for the comfrey in his garden
