Can anyone identify this tree?

I have a Staghorn Sumac in a large pot on my patio - its colour is glorious in autumn. It also has vibrant pink brushes on it.

I didn't want to dig it in my garden as I'd heard they take over - I'm hoping it'll put suckers up in the pot as I think it'll look very structural!

Just check now & then, it hasn't made an escape via hole in the bottom of the pot, stand on bricks / fancy pot feet etc

Good advice Farway  - I know they have a certain reputation but I really love their colours and their statuesque shape of leaf.

Got a Clerodendrum Bungei that escaped from a pot many years ago. Thought I had got rid of it after digging out a base for the patio. Have since found it growing up some 3-4m away behind a shed.
