This unique variety of Stinging Nettle grows to massive size!! Plants often reach 6 feet in height and bear leaves as large as hands!!
Termed “The Jack of All Trades” by biodynamic pioneer Rudolf Steiner, Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) is one of the most nutritious plants in the world, and is easily the most nutritious food that can be cultivated by the home gardener. Nettle leaf has at least 25% protein content, the highest of any vegetable by far. This means that Stinging Nettle is the ideal staple food, as well as being the ideal survival food crop.
Stinging Nettle is uniquely rich in a wide variety of valuable nutritional minerals including iron, silica, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and zinc. As a medicinal herb, Nettle has been successfully employed against a variety of conditions, including high blood pressure, allergies and hay fever, and against prostatic enlargement in men, where Nettle has been shown to increase the circulation of unbound testosterone.
Nettle is a very tough and vigorous easy to grow garden plant. It will grow almost anywhere, but performs best in full sun with rich soil and lots of water.
You receive a large piece of sprouted Nettle rhizome, which can be planted whole for one large clump, or divided into smaller pieces to make several plants.
