I’ve always wondered what these are called. Beautiful pictures!
Thank you! Sometimes the name is written as “dead-nettle” or “deadnettle” though it’s not clear to me where the “dead” part comes from … possibly because some nettles are thorny or poisonous, and those that aren’t are called “dead” ones. Weird, eh? 🙂
So the ones that don’t kill you are dead?
Ironic, no? Fear the Spotted Undead Nettle! 🙂
How weird. Thanks for the info!
Fabulous!
Thank you!
