Quite outstanding yet also demanding!
Cultivation tips: This hardy small tree is often avoided because of its invasive growth and irritant sap. It flourishes in any fertile well drained / dry soil, even chalk. Rhus prefers and open sunny spot for good autumn leaf colour. Cut back suckers in early spring.
