Anyone do it? Might have an opportunity for some Yamadori ones, granted it’s not the poisonous type.
Most of the posts here are mostly just images of “look at my tree” without much else
Yep. I don’t find the typical trees boring but love unique trees that are lesser utilized. Which is part of the reason I posted. Definitely not enough variety it seems at times.Sorry for such negative responses. Personally do not have one of these but one Literati Sumac seen online is most inspiring however would take some years to grow.
FunnyI come here mostly for the pictures of something unusual and see exactly the opposite. Not enough interesting unusual trees. Usually more of the same boring JBP and maples

I’m aware of the compound leaf size. It’s hard to miss on sumac. Not all varieties have large leaflets, in fact the ones I am eyeing are smaller.I think the elephant in the room that may not be known by the op is that sumac, like a pecan or walnut, has a massive compound leaf longer than the entire height many bonsai -this is always gonna be a problem
Okay. You are lazy and must be spoon fed.
I posted this previously on BNut.
It is part of a larger thread that you should have found on your own.
they do. that ghetto palm aka as sumac is a plague in Denver. Almost imposible to kill, it send suckers for many many yards away from the parent tree, colonizing everywhere and wrecking my lawn. I freaking hate them. And to kill them, you need a 3 year process, because the little bugger will come back even from the tiniest piece of root left in the groundWell sounds to be a challenge in the least. I actually like the spindly, leggy look on them as long as they have some movement.
Do they respond well to hard cut backs?
