Concerning sign of urtica running riot (6)
I believe the answer is:
tauric
'concerning sign' is the definition.
The definition suggests an adjective which matches the answer.
'urtica running riot' is the wordplay.
'running riot' indicates an anagram.
'urtica' is an anagram of 'TAURIC'.
'of' acts as a link.
