Hop-tree (Ptelea trifoliata) flowering, along the trail near
the entrance to Shawnee Bottoms, Fountain
County . Hop-tree is rather common here.
The trifoliate leaflets and alternate leaf pattern of
hop-tree looks a lot like poison ivy.
Hop-tree is a small tree and doesn’t irritate the skin, unlike poison
ivy.
