Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Outstanding in the fall landscape! with intense scarlet-red color, but an asset at any time because of the ferny appearance of its deeply-divided leaves and the interesting form of its numerous stems. S/M-D
Same as Rhus typhina, except the leaves are deeply divided, creating a fine-textured ferny appearance in the summer.
Cut leaf sumac. Finely cut green leaves with wonderful fall color. Gallon pot, one only at this point, though probably more in spring.
