Question Asked: This series of four photos starts with the vines crawling up a large tree. Then I shot the suspect vines on the ground near the tree (#2), then in a nearby cover bed (#3) and finally further away from the tree. Looks like the stuff to me
Answer: Hi Brian -
Great pictures of poison ivy. Notice the woody vines, this is quite a healthy vine (or bunch of vines) climbing the tree. Great pictures of what I guess are the just beginning to grow drupes (fruit). The color is a good indicator here as well. We also see a number of black dots on damaged leaflets - likely oxidized urushiol oil (which turns black). If you choose to remove the plant, take care as there is quite a bit here. |
