Gro-Low Sumac
Gro-low sumac is a deciduous shrub with a low, spreading habit. It stays short and spreads over a wide area, creating a low-maintenance, low-water groundcover.
It has dark green, glossy, three-lobed leaves. The leaves have a citrus fragrance when crushed. They turn a brilliant orange to reddish-purple color in the fall, then fall off the plant in winter.
Tiny, inconspicuous yellow flowers bloom in spring and produce red berries in fall. This plant is useful for stabilizing slopes or covering bare ground.
