Staghorn sumac
📍 6272 N Spring Ct, Leesburg, IN 46538, USA
🗓 Season: August · September
🔍 When is it ripe?
Deep red, fuzzy, cone-shaped seed clusters. Ripe in August–September. Soak clusters in cold water for 20–30 minutes, strain, and sweeten for pink 'sumac lemonade'. Very high in vitamin C. Do not confuse with white-berried poison sumac (wetlands, white berries = avoid).
Many Staghorn sumacs(Red Sumac) at the corner of N. Teeple and E. Stanton. These are the non-poisonous sumacs and the red berry cones can be used to make a lemonade-type drink by steeping them.
