Definitely a lot larger than I'm accustomed to seeing in our area.

When every my son would get poison ivy he always had to get a shot until someone told us about mullein tea

This is an excellent Blan B based on what was in the outhouse... as soon as it freezes, they're getting the eviction notice.
