Deadnettle, Lamium purpureum, on Dung.
The Under Garden has a new layer for spring. It's season of interest is expanding.
It is safe to say the garden as a whole has reached a new stage of maturity.
I'm liking it. The expanses of time when nothing needs doing to maintain it are growing
The view from my window in a cold rain before a quick slap of winter in the night.
This morning it was covered in snow. This afternoon it is a Find The Difference puzzle.
There is a sunny difference here too.
Deadnettle, Chickweed and Dandelion are all edible. This is something I need to learn how to do. And they all look quite happy after a quick slap of snow.

You are lucky you have a large expanse for the deadnettle to flounce around in. If unchecked in my garden it covers things and kills them. I don't like it. The dandelions look so cheerful in this gloomy cold weather.
I pull deadnettle in proper gardens Lisa. In the dung piles it is just a green manure cover crop.
