"Common Name: Prairie Flame Shining Sumac
Size/Position: 7 to 10 feet, sun to part shade
Description: A deciduous multi-stemmed shrub with a refined, compact habit making it much smaller than the species. Extremely glossy, attractive foliage, creamy-white blooms in late July and striking deep red fall color. This compact sumac can be grown in a wide variety of soils and landscape conditions. It is very drought tolerant and grows best in full sun."
I just found some at my local nursery, considering them for the wild, dry, shale-soil area on my driveway bank. I want native, and don't care if it suckers...far away from garden areas. The only missing element is a female,,'Morton' is male. Anyone know where I could find the female 'Creel's Quintet' ?
Anyone growing? Living up to the description?
