I'm trying to identify which plant in my late mother-in-law's garden is giving me a rash. I think it might be this creeper that seems to grow both horizontally & vertically. The location is eastern Virginia, USA. Any help you can offer regarding identification would be a great help.

This is Campsis radicans or Trumpet creeper. Most definitely your problem. Causes lots of rashes and itching! Very very aggressive plant, great if need to cover fences, wonderful flowers but you have to be aggressive back to restrain this plant.
