  1. dead nettle

    Dead nettle is a common name for plants in the genus Lamium. They are a group of herbaceous flowering plants, typically ground cover plants that are often characterized by their lack of sting, which distinguishes them from true nettles. They are part of the mint family, Lamiaceae, and are native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. The flowers can be white, yellow, pink, or purple depending on the species. They are called "dead" because they do not have the stinging hairs found on many types of nettle plants.
