What is This ?




Does anyone recognize this plant , it looks like some kind of mint. I haven't been able to positively i.d. it though. I have lots growing around here , everywhere I find chickweed , I find this plant.

    That is Dead Nettle. I have it in my yard as well. Here is a link -

    I've been going to take a pic of this same plant now that it is in bloom, but haven't taken my camera.

    Glad we found out what it is. Now does it have any medicinal uses I wonder? I do not find either plant in the Medicinal Plant and Herbs book I have.

    I heard a lady on tv that mentioned, if a plant has a purple blossom its poisonous.

    God Bless You and Yours!!!
