Common Nettle Seeds 10g Packet (Urtica Dioica L.). Common Nettle belongs botanically to the family Urticaceae. It is used as an herb, vegetable and as a natural plant protection agent in organic farming. As an herb it is used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases. As a vegetable, and thanks to its high levels of albumen and vitamin C, it is used in salads, soups and vegetarian pies - since squeezing or boiling neutralises the pungency of the trichomes. Common Nettles are herbaceous, rhizomatous, perennial plants, which lose their upper part in winter and resprout the following spring from the rhizome. Its plants can reach a height of 0.9 to 3 m and a diameter of 0.3 to 0.6 m. They are extremely easy to cultivate - and indeed they need care so that they do not escape cultivation and become weeds. Common Nettles adapt to almost any soil type, but thrive in deep, organic-rich and moist soil. All parts of the plant are usable.
