They superficially look similar to the common nettle, however they do not sting. They probably evolved this form of batesian mimicry as a defence against predators. It can be identified by its whorls of pink-purple flowers clustered amongst leaves towards the top of the plant. The aromatic leaves are hairy, heart-shaped and have toothed edges. Some leaves near the top of the plant take on a purple tint. This plant can be mistaken for henbit dead-nettle which has similar flowers. They can be differentiated because red dead-nettle leaves have short petioles (leaf stalks). This plant likes arable and waste land and can also be found in gardens, hedgerows and on roadsides.
