This interesting nettle was most critically studied by Maximowicz apparently 

 from the fresh specimens collected by himself in the vicinity of Hakodate. At 

 our request, Mr. Greatrex has kindly sent us the living root of the plant, which 

 seems to be remarkably long. In his letter he informed us that it would be ex- 

 tremely difficult to get the whole root of a plant ; one would have to dig up the 

 whole bank systematicall)' ! The sting is very violent far worse than that of 

 Urtica dioica.
