Dead Sumacs
 

I had a bunch of sumac trees on the west bank of my gulley which jutted
out over the lawn for afternoon and evening sun. I went down there
today. All dead. Is this a bad sumac year or what? Some were 2 and a
half to 3 inches at the base.

I don’t know about your case but I had a fragrant flowering tree
almost die on me. The tree was blocking a neighbor's lemon tree so I
suspect her ambitious landscaper who was also a bum poisoned it. I
have no proof other than a liquid stain on the trunk and the fact that
there was never any sign of any disease. The tree eventually sprouted
a new branch from the root but it took a few years. The neighbor
terminated the landscaper in question because she couldn’t afford him
since she was being foreclosed on due to non payment of mortgage. The
fact that my tree has been fine on its own for many years now also
supports my suspicion. It never ceases to amaze me how many “dirt
bags” that call themselves human are on this world.

I have , now, just one African Sumac tree. Need to trim it. I live in
the desert, it snowed once (two years ago) and collapsed another
sumac..

Pull the root out or that tree, cut at the ground level becomes a
"bush" Wish I had "kilt" the roots back then

I'm speaking of an African Sumac "tree". YMMV.
