[puma-news] Poison Ivy

We are lucky not to have this plan, Toxicodendron rydbergii, up here,
but it does grow along Lower Magnolia, and around Boulder, epecially the
Mesa Trail. Unfortunately, it loves disturbed areas. The only time I
personally had a bout with it, I got from petting a dog who had been
running around in it. It is a native, related to cashews, pistachios,
mangos, sumac, and squaw bush.

Best,
J
