A locality of S. flavas with very long tendrils.

Q6021040 by Wire Man, on Flickr

We were able to distinguish some major difference between native sumac and the invasive Ailanthus. Some of the major ones is that sumac has serrated leaves, produces latex, has no hair on the leaves, grows in an even manner, has closely spaced leaf veins, and is much smaller. Ailanthus has smooth leaf edges, smells bad when crushed, has hairy leaves, radiated growth, distantly spaced leaf veins, and has a taller stature.

Here's sumac up close.
