Small Nettle, Göteborg, November 17th, 2001

The Small Nettle is a lot less common than the Stinging Nettle around here. I found this sample on November 17th at the edge of these piles of earth (which had been an off-limits temptation all summer). I had still not incorporated the Next Block in the S-weed domain.

On November 21st, when I had checked my identification with Erik and came back to take pictures (which I had neglected on the 17th) the piles were being turned into a smooth hill. My nervously taken last-minute pictures of the Nettle didn't turn out.
