![]() Poison ivy and poison oak are two other commonly known poisonous plants that can cause a rash, but they look different from poison sumac. While poison sumac likes to grow in wetlands, most other sumacs prefer drier areas with well-drained soils. Its leaves also have saw-toothed edges, unlike poison sumac. Staghorn sumac has bright orange or red berries growing at the edge of its stems. The most widespread sumac - staghorn sumac - is non-poisonous. Winged sumac can be distinguished from poison sumac by its 9–23 leaflets and red berries. Winged sumac ( Rhus copallinum) looks similar to poison sumac, but is nonallergenic (doesn’t cause an allergic reaction). Poison sumac is more similar to poison ivy and poison oak than it is to other sumacs. ![]()
