is this Russian comfrey?

No, this is the original Comfrey 'Symphytum officinalis'. Hope this helps?

Description says 'heirloom'. Are they open pollinated / fertile seeds?

Yes. They are open-pollinated, heirloom seeds. The seeds are not hybrid or genetically modified. Pollinators will visit the flowers, and the pollination will result in the plant producing fertile seeds. I hope this helps?

Is this the Bocking 14 variety?

Mine are ones grown from seeds not a root start. They are wild comfrey seeds. They came up well. Have wintered well and are now growing again.

Is these seeds official name ‘symphytum officinalis‘ or ‘symphytum officinale’? i can’t find the official name as ‘symphytum officinalis’

The seeds are indeed Symphytum officinale. Thank you for asking and for bringing this to our attention. The official name of the seeds is Symphytum officinale. We have corrected the name in the listing and on the seed packets.
