Question Asked: This is growing rapidly under all of my wax myrtles. I have been removing it as though it is, just in case. It seems to be growing in sets of two leafs. But it sure does look like it! thanks
Answer: Hi Dena - the leaf shape is about right but the leaves themselves are simple. The poison ivy and oak leaves have 3 leaflets. Also these little "volunteers" have leaves that are opposite on the stem. Just something that wants to be there fast I guess :-) |
