Yep thats the common one. There are similar related in the Urticuculae group, and they are quite common now in the states

it' must just be in the deep south then, thankfully i've never lived in the deep south. (for more reasons than just stinging nettles ;) )

Why - do you have some issue with people from the deep south? I wonder what it could be.....

must be the "humidity" ;)

lol

What's wrong. Afraid to be truthful? Thought American was the land of the free and all that.......

After all, isn't that what the Constitution was all about: round about Article 4, Section 1, Amendment 13......;)

lol, you thought i was afraid to say? i thought yu brits like subtlety, was just trying to talk your language.

We used to play a game when we were little in the Summer, put shorts on and run into the nettles... last one to get out is the winner. 1st one out gets thrown in the lake! :P

I can't speak of 'yu brits' but I'm quite happy to confirm that I'm neither a racist or a bigot - no need for subltely on that subject.

Subtley is one thing. Hypocrisy is another thing altogether.

I find it incredibly amusing that you state often on here how great Amercia is: so great that you know so little about it...... even to the down to flora that this thread was discussing, never mind your disregards for the very thing that most Americans are so proud of: The Constitution and the very fundamentals that it stands for.

Based on that: I'm far prefer to fall into a patch of stinging nettles, least I know what to expect.

Anyone remember itchykoos........ I've got them growing in my garden and I'm always tempted when my friends are around, to slip one down the back of their shirts/top ... (we never grow up really!!)

:devil:

wow dude, yu have me pegged all wrong if that's what you think. I don't post about how great America is, i just defend America when i notice someone attacking her around here. I've never gone out of my way to glorify America. I just give my experience as an actual American when it's relevant.

Dudette if you don't mind!!!

I've got the cut of your gib. No need for you to try to explain. No need at all.
