Day 8 - Red dead nettle

Very little time tonight so took the opportunity to grab a pic of a Red Dead-Nettle which is growing by the front gate. This isn't such a great photo but I didn't check it till after dark! This is a very common and widely distributed species. It is particularly phenotypically plastic in that it's appearence (size and colour) vary depending on the environment in which it grows.
