Field Notes

Description:

A vining plant with clusters of three leaves, turning red in the autumn.

Habitat:

Ozark forest, feild, and glade.

Notes:

"Leaves of three? LET IT BE!"! Some people experience an allergic reaction by only walking by poison ivy. Do not stand near brush that is burning and may contain poison ivy as it can be spread this way as well.
