Here are a few pictures of my nettle patch. It is primarily nettle and grass but with native strawberry and lemon balm growing interspersed as well. Today I noticed my first Shaggy Parasol mushrooms popping up in my nettle patch. These nettles are located on the margins of a small hemlock grove and gets near full afternoon sun.

Baby nettles and shaggy parasol photo taken today.

Here are my pioneer nettles and lemon balm. The nettles appear at the top of the photo - then there is a small stick from the stick on down is baby lemon balm

Looks like my place -- I guess that figures: Western Washington too.. I don't encourage nettle near any berries I want to pick.
