going to be cutting out some "tiger eye" sumacs on Sunday....don't ever buy these if you plan to use them in landscape borders.....they suck....they are an evasive succoring tree....sending out stringers and succor chutes like nothing else...

I'm going to replace them with some hostas....I've got some "empress wu" and "sum of substance" on order....these are giant hostas BTW....they reach full maturity if 3-4 years and will get 36" tall and 5' wide....

Was really confused how Hostas were going to work in the same fashion as Sumacs. Good luck with the new plants.
