How sure are you?


Thanks for all the responses. I nuked it with Roundup. Being an
ongoing vine, I know you can't kill the whole thing by spraying
exposed plant. But what is showing sure shows signs of a severe tummy
ache.


Terrific. It still isn't poison oak. Leaves are too flat, too glossy,
and veins are a contrasting color. Poison oak leaves are scrunchy /
wrinkled, darker / duller, and veins do not contrast like that.


We'll just give it a generic name of Poison Hurtin'.
