Hi Ori,
Another interesting species and unknown for my. TFS
I love the variety of species in your gallery. The nettle family is particularly interesting to me. This nettle reminds me of the stinging nettle I encountered in Germany...and it was a PAINFUL encounter. ha ha
We have something we call Bull Nettle which I think is Cnidoscolus stimulosus but that's not a true nettle, is it?
