    Does anyone know what this lovely tree is called? Seen a few about and I think they're really pretty. Would like to read up on them to see if they're suitable for my garden but no idea what they're called. Any ideas?

                Hmm the suckering is quite off putting. I've got a plum tree that is bad for suckering and it's very annoying. Wonder if there is anything similar?

                  Don't get one! :rolleyespink: They're a lovely tree but horrendous for turning up all over the place. It's a lovely Sumach above ground and a Triffid underground. :doh:
