Rick, I'm have allergic reactions to the foliage of Achillea species - I
break out in small bumps that itch and burn at the same time, but dont last
too long. I also get blisters that leave scars from the sap of Ruta
graveolens. I too am allergic to some lawn grasses, but them I'm allergic to
nearly everything according to my allergist. My husband is allergic to the
milky sap of Euphorbia (blisters) and Juniperus species make him break out
in hives.
