Where Does Poison Ivy Grow?

Poison ivy is native to most areas of the United States and parts of Canada, with Eastern poison ivy prevalent mostly in the eastern portion of the country. Western poison ivy is found in the lower portions of Canada and throughout the United States, excluding the south-eastern states.
