Nettles

I've only seen nettles before when they are going

to flower which makes them taller looking.
So when I first saw these while I was sure they

were nettles I didn't want to take any chances with 

them so we kept our distance.

After checking around online I found  local
information about the nettles here.

Yes the plant is edible but no we were not prepared to harvest.

I've not eaten nettles before, have you?
