THANK YOU!!!!! I looked that up, that’s what it is. It’s in the flower beds and a pain to get rid of. Are there any weed killers I can put in my flower beds (by flower I really mean plant - roses, hydrangeas, etc) that will kill this and not harm the others?

Not that I know of. You can use a pre-emergent but most likely it will take hands and knees weed pulling on a regular basis. And mulch -- lots of mulch.
It's called dead nettle because – unlike its stinging cousin – the nettles in this plant are dead, rendering it completely safe to eat freshly plucked from the ground.
This little “weed” is high in Vitamin C, iron, and fiber –plus the seeds are packed full of antioxidants.

Weed. noun; 'a wild plant growing where it is not wanted and in competition with cultivated plants.'
I have it too. It’s kind of pretty, I think. But anyway, it pulls up easily.
I agree with you about it being pretty. One of my favorite nurseries sells it and I've used it in flower pots and planters.
Here in the St. Louis area, it doesn't seem to be as tenacious as in the south I guess.
