I'm scared of poison ivy for the obvious reasons. And giant hogweed just
frightens the bejeebus out of me. (Heracleum mantegazzianum)

When I was staying with people who live in the redwoods, I was always
worried outside because the poison ivy was just EVERYwhere. There's
nothing worse than nettles where I live, & it's possible to get revenge on
nettles by frying them up with potatos &amp eating them, so there's never
any leeriness walkikng in the woods around PUget Sound. It was a strange
feeling in the redwoods to be worried about a plant.
