Rhus typhina
small tree in fall color. the red fruits are edible and can be made into tea or sucked on for their sour taste
Staghorn sumac grows in gardens, lawns, the edges of forests, and wasteland. It can grow under a wide array of conditions, but is most often found in dry and poor soil on which other plants cannot survive.
I spotted this along the Bruce Trail after crossing Mewburn Rd. Staghorn Sumacs are quite common in the forest in my area.

Thanks Dan and have good journey!
Thanks Meik. Okay, I've joined the mission and added this spotting so far. I'm traveling now but when I get home or to a faster computer I will add the rest of my trees.
Congrats Dan and thanks for all the great spottings and help!
Could you add your tree spottings to the "Trees of the World" mission?
