Like many other members of the Lamiaceae, they appear superficially similar to those of the Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) but do not sting, hence the common name "dead-nettle". The flowers are white, produced in whorls ('verticillasters') on the upper part of the stem, the individual flowers 1.5–2.5 cm long. The flowers are visited by many types of insects, but mostly by bees. Young leaves and flowers from Lamium album can be eaten raw. Young leaves can also be boiled and eaten as a vegetable.

Lamium album; The White Dead-nettle is an introduced weedy species on Iceland. One can find it only near human settlements. It spreads locally by sub-soil rootstocks. Characteristic for all members of the mint family are the square stems and the typical flower-shape. In this species the square stem is quite conspicuous. It is a member of the mint family (Lamiaceeae). The Icelandic name of this species is Ljósatvítönn. See more: http://iceland-nh.net/plants/data/Lam...

White Dead-nettle is a common plant of roadside verges, waste grounds and grassy banks - anywhere the ground has been disturbed. Like Yellow Archangel and other members of the 'dead'-nettle family, it doesn't have stinging leaves. Its white flowers appear from March right the way through to December.

The nectar at the base of the tube-like flowers of Lamium album is only accessible to long-tongued insects such as bumble bees and mason bees. Smaller insects are often not heavy enough to open the flowers. The nettle-shaped leaves of Lamium album do not sting and are eaten by slugs and snails.
