STAGHORN SUMAC IN FALL Staghorn Sumac Rhus typhina is a shrub or small tree which is common in the southern part of Ontario. It gets its name from the appearance of its branches that look something like the horns of a stag and are coated with velvety hairs. The large leaves are divided into many pairs of leaflets and they turn red in the fall. Small flowers grow in large, greenish-yellow clusters in June and July. A refreshing drink can be made from the berry-like fruits which form upright, dark-red, cone-shaped masses. [CH] {SH}
