Nettles are coming

The nettles are coming. Yesterday I noticed amongst the hedgerows and under the bare crowns, small clumps of green were popping up, heralding the arrival of that most useful of spring herbs the Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica). I'm going to have a look locally and if enough are about to collect, it'll be stinging nettle soup time.
