The writing on the boxes got washed away..anyway when it was time to transplant I did..
I enjoyed their view all summer, but now I am collecting the seeds and want to label them correctly.
Thank you for helping

Photos do help but in the mean time...

Daisy and comfrey have two VASTLY different types of flowers. Daisies have the center disk and the petals ringing around that. You know, the "she-loves-me, she-loves-me-not" flower.

Comfrey has little bell like flowers like this one from my own garden:

I posted a photo..the flowers are little cone flower, pretty tight cone, no more than one inch in high and diameter in a deep mauve color. Now they are turning straw color I will try to post again the picture.
Thank you and now I know they are not daisies neither comfrey...
