Jewel Weed is widely recognized as a very good treatment for poison ivy. I've used it with great results myself. If your case of poison ivy isn't too severe or in your eyes or an area where you might need a Dr. visit, you can crush the stems and rub the sap directly onto your skin. This plant is like a large succulent. The stems have a lot of sap. The sap is not sticky, it doesn't appear to stain your skin or clothing, it doesn't smell bad and there's quite a bit in just one plant. Rub it liberally on the effected area. For me the itching stops right away and the poison ivy dries up and goes away totally within a day or two. Pictured is Jewel Weed with a beautiful orange bloom. Some also has a bright yellow blossom. Both work equally well.
