| Urtica
incisa (native stinging nettle or scrub nettle) is a
widespread and common native perennial herb. It occurs in
moist shady places, especially in more fertile parts of
Tasmania and is commonly seen after episodes of disturbance.
Like its introduced relative, U. urens, it is
covered in stinging hairs, but has long, usually narrow
leaves and flowers in elongate, spike-like inflorescences.
