Rhus chinensis



29th August 2010


A large shrub, I bought it (as R.potanini) because it had good looking large leaves. I have since seen it growing at Wisley looking magnificent - and a little unruly. I'm not sure I have given it enough space, and may have to reconsider this winter while it is still small enough to move.

I delayed for a couple of years before realising that it had to be moved, so it was yanked up with a little less dignity than it deserved and replanted on the boundary at the top of the garden. Now it has space to expand I have great hopes for it.
I am also hoping that I got the roots up before they grew large enough to produce suckers.
