Title: whatit is.
Post by: Texas Ranger on October 01, 2021, 04:36:59 PM

One of my dendro teachers in college was Carl Settergren, and Carl loved to throw curves to us, for example, one winter outing Carl pointed out a few scattered somethings less than 3 foot tall, no foliage,  and said "for 10 points".  This is along those lines.

Oh, scattered somethings were poison ivy.

My guess is, it isn't enough to hack a mimosa, you gotta squirt too.

Now that wasn't hard, was it?  Another one of those truisms.
