Grasp the Nettle

Soup and greens,beer and tea
buttlerfly young just love me,
aphid trap and liquid feed
ladybird heaven,yes indeed!
I love phosphate & nitrate soil
such versatility reduces toil,
my leaves quicken the compost
all this for free,at no cost!
Okay,okay,yes I sting
but for you its win,win,win!

Tribute to the utrica dioica

A good rub with a docken leave will fix the stinging...I really enjoyed this Brian, No nettles around here. While on holiday in Scotland my Australian daughter walked through a field covered in them... cheers Margaret
