As a young boy growing up on Long Island in the late ’50s, my favorite local pastimes and greatest loves were fishing, wild berry picking, playing outside, and being close to nature. I remember playing in relatively fresh, unspoiled, and deeply forested areas that were complemented with mixed trees and ground vegetation, which of course included Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, Poison Sumac, English Ivy, Swedish Ivy, Cat Briar, Wild Tea Rose, Honeysuckle, and Japanese Knotweed (to list a few). In addition, the outlying undeveloped meadows were similarly complemented with mixed areas of Poison Ivy Poison Oak, and Poison Sumac in all of its variant forms, including wild Raspberry, wild Blackberry, wild Mulberry, wild Strawberry, Ash, Maple, and Box Elder. By the time I was 14 years of age, I already contracted the Poison Ivy allergy rash at least 60 times, but at the same time, I never managed to figure out what this darn plant and its close cousins, Poison Oak and Sumac, looked like.
