yes Ailanthus altissima a tall towering tree grows very large
bought in to USA in 1899 or so as an ornamental from England where it was brought by mistake by a missionary as a source of varnish resin (???) and later nursery trade pushed it as a tree for easy shade in NY city and its boroughs and even USDA it seems gave out seeds grows anywhere and everywhere but, now considered a noxious weed twist of fate: its call tree of heaven may be because of its full mature tree height? this entire saga is nicely summed up by this page <https://www.ecolandscaping.org/05/landscape-challenges/invasive-plants/tree-of-heaven-an-exotic-invasive-plant-fact-sheet/> its even banned now to be planted imported etc to Massachusetts. == its flowering and the leaves were clearly seen in this picture otherwise its difficult to distinguish when young from staghorn sumac <https://njaudubon.org/how-to-correctly-distinguish-invasive-tree-of-heaven-from-native-sumac/> which grows in the same kind a soils esp in NY and NJ == Regards Ushadi On Thu, Oct 10, 2019 at 11:36 PM Aarti S.
