Glorious fall colors of red, yellow and orange make Fragrant Sumac an optimum choice for a hedge or wildlife garden. In spring, gentle, yellow flowers appear before the glossy, blue-green foliage, which gives off a lemony scent when crushed. Red berries on female plants persist through winter, providing spring food for birds. The flower provides nectar for butterflies. Forms thickets.
