Toxicodendron vernix
Short trees 15ft tall max with fern like leaf patterns. Deep brilliant red foliage in fall. The first trees to turn color in the fall.
Near the edge of a forest or edge of a meadow.
They are my favorite fall color! They are poisonous by touch to some even though I am not. I think the allergic reaction is similar to poison ivy.
Interesting spotting ! Would love to see a Sumac in the wild ( poison or otherwise). Thanks for sharing this.
