Skunkbush (Rhus aromatica) is a good size shrub that can sprawl or be more upright. In the spring there are clusters of yellow flowers which become tart red berries, beloved by birds and traditionally used by people for centuries. The fall is most spectacular with the three lobed leaves turning gold, orange, red, and burgundy before falling.
