EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Nigel Cattlin, we witness the aftermath of an epic battle between man and nature. The mischievous stinging nettles, known for their prickly reputation, decided to put up a fight against glyphosate - a popular herbicide used to control them in gardens and agriculture. The print showcases these defiant nettle warriors displaying signs of damage after being treated with glyphosate. Their once vibrant green leaves now bear the marks of chlorosis - turning pale yellow at the apex points. It seems like these nettles weren't quite ready to surrender! With their spiky exteriors and relentless growth patterns, stinging nettles have always been a formidable opponent for gardeners and farmers alike. But who knew they had such resilience? Despite facing off against one of mankind's most potent weapons in weed control, they managed to leave their mark on this battlefield. This comical image serves as a reminder that even in our attempts to tame nature's wild side, it can still surprise us with its tenacity. So next time you encounter some cheeky stinging nettles in your garden or field, be prepared for an unexpected showdown!
