English
New zealand swamp nettle is a hardy perennial with a penchant for damp habitats, often flourishing along streams or in shady forest undergrowth. It bears heart-shaped leaves with a toothed margin and tiny, inconspicuous flowers. This plant’s defining feature is its stinging hairs, which can cause a skin reaction upon contact—an adaptation to deter grazers from its nutrient-rich foliage.
