Yellow Archangel (Lamium galeobdolon) is a member of the dead Nettle family, there are around 50 members of the dead nettle family, all bringing colour to our countryside. I think they're a wonderful family of plants, all have delicate and intricately fashioned flowers, and all display admirable fortitude and endurance in the environmental corners in which they'll survive and thrive. Though to see them at their best, is to see them on mass in a woodland setting, augmented with other coloured spring blooms...wonderful. Though many would describe them as a 'weed', silly people, what really is a weed after all.
