Default Comfrey ID

I came across, growing by a canal, a comfrey which was lower growing,
and with different coloured flowers, from the usual Symphytum x
uplandicum (Russian Comfrey). At the time I thought it was Symphytum
tuberosum (tuberous comfrey), but on checking my books it seems a less
that exact match.

Any opinions?
