Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comThe base is approx. 9 inches in width and grown so tall it went into the tall branches of one tree and across to another, killing several branches. When my father cut the “weed” down, a clear looking liquid dripped for days. Now my father has a rash on his arms. Any ideas what it could be and how to completely remove it?

1 Comment To "We Have a “Weed” That Has Grown So Big"

It is possible that this “weed” may have been poison ivy or oak. Or within that family as its sap, which was dripping from the plant, is what normally causes rashes to occur. While many people think of them as only small, 3-leafed plants, they will actually produce large, woody vines that can climb throughout surrounding trees and structures. This article will help determine if this is in fact your weed: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/special/starting/poison-ivy-control.htm [1]
