Even though I used Killex on all poison ivy around my cabin last year, these plants manage to defy all my attempts.
Well, I sprayed these ones Sunday. Hopefully, I don't get poison ivy again. For me, it seems, just looking at it is enough.
I promised earlier that I would get a good picture of it to put on the blog so I photographed it before spraying.
You notice that it droops like it needs water, has three leaves, the new leaves are red but the older leaves are green like normal plants in summer, and that there are notches on the sides. There may be 3 notches or points on one side and maybe none or one on the other side. Most leaves from other plants have the same number on each side...just picture the maple leaf - The Canadian Flag.
