Learning to identify plant families is a great help in identifying the plant species you come across. Here we’re going to summarise the family features of the Urticaceae, also known as the nettle family.

If a plant has tiny separate female and male flowers with no petals, the male flowers have four stamens and the female flowers have a superior ovary; it has dry one-seeded fruits; leaves that are simple, opposite and toothed or alternate and entire, and the leaves and stems are hairy, especially with stinging hairs, then Urticaceae seems like the right family.
