What tree is this?

[ultreen1]

Can someone please enlighten me?
I don't know what tree this is but the bees (maybe mine, they are at the bottom of the garden) seem to be very interested in the buds.
Many thanks!

Thanks, good tree for bees from the info on google.
I'll need to keep an eye out for any shoots close by!

yep aka stags horn sumach

They sucker like you wont believe the come up quite a way from the main tree as well

Common English name: Stag's Horn Sumac and as already warned the thing can be very invasive. If it is planted close to a boundary it will start send up shoots next door - 10 or 15 feet away or more in time.

On the positive side it does have some medicinal uses.

We have 2 one by the house and another 25m away further down the garden. (by the parasol in the pic)
Until today I've never heard of suckers, well, tree suckers! You learn something new everyday on the forum!

Watch out for the suckers...

Being a weak tree easily wrecked by inclement weather , it's a good job it suckers readily

Nice autumn leaf colour though

We had them in the house I was born in - and I lived there for many years. My aunt still lives next door having lived in the same house for almost 70 years. Even as a young child (from age about 3 yrs) I loved this tree because of the wonderful autumn colours - almost looks like it is on fire when the sun catches it. My Mum used to call it the Rusty Phinus - slightly corrupting the latin name in view of its lovely Rust colour.
