no
i am not asking you to post or find NY posts
most likely they were poison sumac, a different species.
its not for my information
i am asking if you noticed or photographed them with these leaves
you said it was everywhere that the leaves were changing
poison sumac has those panicles/spikes too, is poisonous
the poison sumac is not used for human consumption, birds however like them
this here is called staghorn sumac,
also has similar spikes of red/brown in fall fruits, is edible.
folks make drinks out of the berries.
etc etc
so now tell me
do you have pictures of this plant in whole?
or similar ones you saw in Atlanta ?
thats all i am asking for
thanks
