Default Grevillia Allergy

It's a pity that you are suffering from these. I too get a rash but I just
tolerate it, but then we all have different tolerance levels and intensities
of discomfort. Perhaps you could spray them with round-up and wait for them
to dry. Hoping this would reduce the 'live' active ingredients that bother
you; then toe them out with you car (if they are that big)

Hi

I have a couple of Grevillias in my front garden beds. Although I love the
plants, I seem to be allergic to them as I break out in itchy, dry rashes,
that feel a lot like a burn, whenever I touch them. I would like to dig

them
out, but don't really want to have to deal with more rashes. Unfortunately

I
don't know anyone nearby who could remove them for me & wearing clothing
covering my skin doesn't seem to help. Is there any easy way I can remove
them from out of my garden?
