for many years    !!!  & I have  never seen   purple flowers   on the plant <weed>

They brew it up in tea & drink it

Thanks for  reading this     

Ps     clue  < there usally  is a orange  flower   near it   that gives  it away    & also  that  orange  flower

Bumped a stinging nettle with my knee on the stream bank he other day. Just a brush, but I knew it right away. I usually rub a handful of creek bottom mud on the spot for a minute to help ease the sting. They're all around the creek where I do most of my fishing near my home.

Nasty stuff!

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
