About Sumac
 
Grow in average, dry to medium wet, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Tolerant of wide range of soils except those that are poorly drained. Best when massed for stabilizing embankments or for hard-to-cover areas with poorer soils or for naturalizing in wild areas. To start seed indoors a hot water treatment is necessary. Soak seed in as hot as possible tap water for 72 hours. Rinse well and send to cold treatment for 90 to 120 days. Sow into container and cover to depth.
