Hi Flassie ~ I'm not sure about the nettles. Would love to learn more about them , but if they stung you , it is probably nettle. I remember getting stung by them as a child when we went fishing along the river bank. You may want to leave a comment over at the " Herbal Roots Zine " , asking Kristine to popover and take a look , maybe she can help identify . I'll look for info and see what I can find out about them.

flassie, red tinted stinging nettle! how pretty, i've never seen that variety before! from what i can see, it is definitely nettles....the flowers match, the leaves match, the stem (looks like 4 fused together) matches, the sting matches....yum! i love nettles!
