Sumac, Staghorn
Staghorn Sumac is a bold, architectural native that earns its name from the velvety, antler-like branches that give the plant a distinctive year-round presence. The dramatic tropical-looking compound leaves — sometimes 18–24 inches long — turn an extraordinary range of scarlet, orange, and gold in autumn, making this one of the most spectacular fall color shrubs native to the Great Lakes region. Dense, upright cones of deep red velvet fruit persist through winter, drawing birds and providing an ornamental focal point when the landscape is otherwise bare. Exceptionally tough, drought tolerant once established, and spreading naturally into colonies, it’s ideal for naturalizing slopes, banks, and areas where erosion control with a native plant is the goal.
