Despite being really really invasive here in Europe, I love the Staghorn Sumac.

It's very pretty, with great flowers and soft furry branches (like antlers). You can make an amazing "lemonade" from the fruits and you can eat the shoots raw.

And eating the shoots raw is a great idea, because it branches out like crazy. If your neighbors have one of these, you'll soon have half a dozen too.

They also grow pretty fast, and the wood is super pretty (and super curvy, so you won't be making any boards out of it)
