Default Stinging nettle male

Nettles are dioecious - each plant is either male or female. They tend
to grow in single-sex stands so wind pollination works for them. These
male flowers have four fat stamens and little else, shedding as much
pollen as possible.
If you have hay fever it might be caused by stinging nettles - in that
case the traditional nettle-leaf tea might bring some relief.
