TIL about this plant. Holy moly.
We have nettles native to where I live but those are like a couple of/a few hours of pain. And the pain is just mildly intense itching. Enough to make a child cry, kind of.
But this… 😳

This isn’t the same plant as the op. Op is poison oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum).

On a related note actual olive trees look like they are from lord of the rings.
