I read about that nettle. The book calls it stinging nettle because the leave "sting" you??? Did you have any problems with that?
Looks like you hit the jackpot!
Stinging nettles are one of the best plants for human health, both as food and medicine. They are a complete, ready-packaged natural vitamin and mineral supplement, grow everywhere and are free - an ultimate herbal medicine.
Wow, that sounds great! So far I haven't had the pleasure of being stung by the nettle, but they say it itches like crazy.
At the school, they send the 5 year olds out with rubber dishwashing gloves to collect the nettle!
