If possible we need to try and find out what this plant. It’s caused skin reactions on a couple of us as a re-enactment event and we need to try and identify it so we know what It is to avoid in the future.
A major reaction caused our youngest who came out in horrible rash across her neck and face; along with sever itchiness to go home. An antihistamine only seemed to reduce the redness of the rash and only a cold shower later seemed to help get rid of the majority of the reaction. Other reactions although smaller seemed to happen within a few minutes of brushing against the plant.
The clearest image is where it’s being held.
We we would appreciate any help you can give us!
