So I have recently sprouted up some lovely poison oak or ivy spots on my arm. This is the second time this has happened since we moved to our new house with a huge overgrown backyard. I have been searching all day trying to find the offender and have come down to two candidates. If you guys could please help me figure out which one is making me itch so I can focus on getting that out first before I move on to the other millions of plants that are taking over my backyard. I've attached some pictures: The first one is just growing on the ground. The second one which is also growing on a tree type of thing which makes me think it might not be anything but it does have a very 3 leaf like configuration. Thanks for your help everyone...I'm off to go put some more Caladryl on my arm....
The one on the left looks like one of the irritating species of Rhus. The one on the right looks like Acer negundo.
Thank you so much!!! I have another vine (probably some sort of bean) that is growing all over so I'll be sure to watch out for this one seeing as it is hiding within the pit of vines.
