Lipstick/lip liner? Some forms come in a narrow pencil-like thingee. Eyebrow pencil?

Regular Round-up won't kill wild parsnip; it just mutates it, quite prettily, in fact. You have to use a high concentration to actually kill it.

We now have giant hogweed here. Oh joy. Plenty of poison ivy here, but not too bad if you're careful.
But wild (poison) parsnip is my nemesis. It looks innocent and fern-like when young; when mature, it has a dill-like head that is pretty enough that unwary persons have used it in bouquets. I am terribly sensitive to it. (Not everyone is so affected.) It slow burns through my skin like an underground fire, creates wounds and scabs that take weeks to heal, and leaves scars. I've had cases so bad that I ran a fever.

To reiterate what jamesp said, the sumac in the lower picture (with the red parts) is NOT poisonous. It is staghorn sumac. A tea can be made of the red berries, and early sugarers used the hollow branches as sap spouts by removing the spongy interior.

Sumac is common around here, never seen poison oak. Sumac has no effect on me. Tree surgeons and timber men have to deal with handling trees covered in Ivy. They wear heavy clothing to help reduce exposure, winter work for sure. The Ivy is the one to avoid. Sumac germinates in open fields, easily gets 20 feet tall. Beautiful fall colors lol. Pithy wood, mows down easily.

I don't care what "they" say, that is nowhere near intuitive. Anyway, here is the zircon, Bancroft, ONT.

Yeah, um right. How do I copy onto my mouse clipboard the BB code and paste? I don't see anything that says mouse clipboard. Right click, left click, what?

Prince Albert would go 12". Man, that just sounds wrong.
Not sure if they were russetted though... they are a practically extinct variety popular in the mid 1800s. It's true that Idaho has the most Famous Potatoes! I've read it on a license plate, so I know it must be so!

They are not actors. They are prostitutes, selling their bodies.

Greetings from Vermont! I'm no expert (on anything)and I am a returning tumbler also. I have been happy with my Lortone 3A. It is SO much quieter than the plastic barrel thing. You may want to look into getting the Lortone 33B, which has two barrels -- one for each son.

Cliff, you can have all my share of June snow... and May, and April, and October, and November and March and why not take that cursed February snow too.
