Question
Hello, Can you please tell me if this plant is poison ivy and, if not, what it is? It is growing in our yard in between a small rock wall and also coming up in a few places nearby. Thanks for your help! - Teresa
Answer
Dear TAVE777, no, this plant is not poison-ivy (genus Toxicodendron). That species has leaves with only three leaflets that are not further divided into leafules (as in the plant you have photographed). Further, poison-ivy does not have the rigid white bristles found on the leaves. I hope this is helpful.
