Pictures of Poison Ivy Look-Alikes

By speaking of "poison ivy look-alikes," I don't mean to imply that any of these plants look like poison ivy to me. But then again, I do a lot of gawking at weeds. For those less inclined to take a good, long look at our weedy friends, these pictures of poison ivy look-alikes should come in handy in helping you distinguish poison ivy from other weeds, thereby bettering your chances of avoiding poison ivy. This picture of the poison ivy look-alike, Virginia creeper, shows the young leaves of the latter.
