The perspective is not so great for plant ID, but this is the larger species Lamium maculatum, not Lamium purpureum, see e.g. File:20210508 Bombus pascuorum 03.jpg for the size of a bumblebee in relation to the size of the tiny flowers of Lamium purpureum. Also, the annual Lamium purpureum does not usually have so prominent white markings on the flowers. In addition, flowers are usually clustered at the top of the stem in Lamium purpureum, not so much with Lamium maculatum. Best regards --Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 16:03, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
