Vinny in front of giant hogweed

Almost 6 ft tall hogweed

Here is a picture of my 15 year old son standing in front of an almost 6 ft tall hogweed. This plant resembles a Queen Anne's Lace, but it is extremely dangerous. If you get the sap on your skin it will blister worse than poison ivy when exposed to the sun. If you get it in your eyes, it can cause blindness. Do not remove, go to www.dec.ny.gov for more information.
