The Rhus typhina is a large, vigorous native shrub with a spectacular fall coloration. Traditionally, its red fruits are used in the preparation of delicious pink lemonade.

Sowing method : Lightly abrade the seed coat by rubbing seeds between two sheets of sandpaper. Mix seeds with an equal amount of damp sand or vermiculite. Place the mixture in a sealed plastic bag. Store the bag in a refrigerator or cool storage room for at least 90 days. Sow seeds when there is no risk of ground frost. Or plant the seeds outdoors during the fall. Germination will occur the following spring or later on.
