POISON IVY is a woody shrub or vine with hairy looking aerial
roots. It grows to 10 feet or more, climbing high on trees, walls and fences or trails
along the ground. All parts of poison ivy, including the roots, are poisonous at all times
of the year. The toxin in poison ivy is an oil which causes an irritating skin reaction on many people. The reaction, an itchy rash with clear blisters, is variable in severity among people, and can vary from year to year on the same individual. |
