It is usually shinny with 3 leaves. Do not mistake poison ivy with the red vine you see sometimes. 7min itch is a ivy but not poison so don't mistake with that either. It can also look like a tree with a brown root climbing up it. It look much like when you get scratched hard and that place swells up.
