Pretty sure this photo is of Purple Dead Nettle, Lamium purpureum, not Henbit. They are often confused until one compares them side-by-side.

Just look at these two plant files:
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1442/
http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/53157/

Compare those photos with the link you just posted. Your original photo is Purple Deadnettle.
