Hi...I really need some help. We recently moved into a house in the Dallas area. The boxes are unpacked and now I am dying to weed the backyard. The vegetation is beautiful, but I have my suspisions of poison ivy and poison oak lurking about! I am originally from El Paso Texas, where such things are foreign.....but just ask me about tumble weeds and goat head stickers! :) The first two pictures were taken at the base of a fence vining upward. The last few pictures where taken in a flower bed along the back wall. As you can see there is a vine and some underbrush as well. Then there are some that I know are not poison ivy, but just have no clue what they are. Would you please help me identify what is lurking in my garden. Thank you! Sincerly puzzled, April
