Thank you, Carol. A few years ago I saw some women cutting these beautiful berry stalks “for our the Christmas bouquets at our banquet.” I said that probably wasn’t a great idea, and suggested they may want to go home and wash very thoroughly with soap and water, because these are Poison Ivy berries, and touching the stems and berries can cause the same allergic reactions as touching the leaves. Lovely to look at…only :)
