The staghorn sumac is considered an invasive neophyte in Switzerland and Germany and is classified as a threat to biodiversity. Therefore, we are refraining from providing watering recommendations here.

    The staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina L.) is a deciduous tree belonging to the cashew family (Cumacaceae). It is native to North America and was introduced to Europe in 1602. 
    The sumac tree is a shrub or small tree and can reach a height of 5 to 10 m and an age of up to 70 years. 
    The flowers of the staghorn sumac are small and white or pink in color. 
    The leaves of the staghorn sumac are large, pinnate, and green. In autumn, they change color to bright orange to scarlet.

    The fruits are dense, upright, red fruit clusters that range in color from red to green and ripen in late autumn.

    The sumac tree is considered very resilient and thrives in many different soils and climates.
