<p>What a pernicous pest of a plant! I wonder how far north it will eventually spread considering it's native range. Whenever I have had a Scheffelerra(sp) and taken cuttings the young leaves have fewer segments(palmating) than the mature ones. Sorry my spelling is not as good as it used to be. That is something to keep in mind as well - the leaves that is LOL. <br></br> <br></br> <cite>JRComito said:…</cite></p>

<p>Best thing is to take a full leaf stalk and flower/seed to a greenhouse, conservatory, or the local cooperative extention office to ID the plants. I am usually careful any time I come across the "leaves of 3" plants...have had a few run-ins with poison ivy. Keep in mind it is not a true ivy but a subshrub, very leggy and short. Good luck</p>
<p>the first photo reminds me of lillies or iris because of the type of root/corymb growth and the leaf shoots. but there are so many varieties…</p>
