It is common in light woods, among bushes and wood clearings all over the most European countries. It can grow up to 1 m toll and has large up to 4 cm long blue violet bells. Its leaves are similar to the leaves of common nettle what reflects in its vernacular names in many languages. - Ref. (1) D. Aeschimann, K. Lauber, D.M. Moser, J.P.
