Sumac - Smooth Growth is rapid. This is an important deer browse species. The Smooth Sumac, Rhus glabra, is a shade-intolerant pioneer on heavily disturbed sites, and is particularly common along road and railroad rights-of-way. Seed production is moderately abundant, and seeds are dispersed by birds. Lifespan is about 20-30 years, though clones can persist for centuries. Usually in clumps of several to many individuals in a clone, rarely more than 25 stems in one clone. |
