Mint Family This is one of those mints that does not have an odor; I crushed a leaf to check for an aroma. I found this one blooming on the Haw Ridge Greenway in Oak Ridge in mid-August. Perennial Where seen: Cherokee National Forest, Haw Ridge Greenway
on Clingman's Dome in the Smokies! I photographed this one in early July. It is not a true "nettle," this plant is in the Mint Family. Perennial Where seen: Great Smoky Mountains NP
