This planting of Gro-low Fragrant Sumac gives a wonderful informal border to the edge of the stone path, providing a low canopy of glossy dark green Summer foliage that will explode into vibrant fall color in mid- to late Autumn.
The family Anacardiaceae contains poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac, and Schinus terebinthifolius, or Brazilian pepper-tree.
In late summer, we cleared the 2- and 3-inch-diameter sumacs that had invaded the old garden. The nearby dairy farmer plowed and harrowed the garden, and we planted cover crops of annual ryegrass and winter rye.

The animals also have adapted to the fires in the Chaparral. Many of the animals and plants depend on the fires for regeneration. The plants need fire because Lauvel Sumac seed coats need fire to open them so new plants can grow.
However, even if the flowers do not appeal to you don't disdain the leaves. The plant will grow quite happily beneath some shrub. I have one that lives at the foot of a shrub rose and another grows under a sumach.
The gloss is low to medium, and the color is a bit bronzy-green rather than bright pure green. But the young growth as it unfurls is strikingly handsome velvety maroon, like the fuzz of staghorn sumach (Rhus typhina).
