This very hardy shrub is a commonly known sumac. Laciniata, however, means lace-leaf and that makes this variety an exclusive specimen. Fern-like leaves are long, deeply cut, bright grass green with pinkish-purple new twigs and stalks. In the autumn they turn to orange-gold. Due to its unique shape and form it is ideal as a palm tree substitute. New growths are fragile. It can be pruned from spring to summer. Soil tolerant.
