Galeopsis angustifolia
About
Galeopsis ladanum var. angustifolia, the red hemp-nettle, is a European annual plant growing to 30 cm tall. It flowers between June and October on waste ground, railway tracks, and other stony places. It is classified as critically endangered, having declined dramatically in the last 60 years due to increased fertiliser and herbicide. Modern farming techniques such as autumn cultivation have also affected the plant because they are killed before they have set seed.

How to use it
The red hemp-nettle is primarily of ecological interest due to its rarity and the role it plays in its native habitat. It can serve as an indicator species, signaling the health of the ecosystems where it grows. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this plant and its environment.
