WHAT DOES RHUS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Sumac

Sumac is any one of approximately 35 species of flowering plants in the genus Rhus and related genera, in the family Anacardiaceae.

The leaves are spirally arranged; they are usually pinnately compound, though some species have trifoliate or simple leaves. The flowers are in dense panicles or spikes 5–30 centimetres long, each flower very small, greenish, creamy white or red, with five petals. The fruits form dense clusters of reddish drupes called sumac bobs. The dried drupes of some species are ground to produce a tangy crimson spice. Sumacs propagate both by seed, and by new shoots from rhizomes, forming large clonal colonies. The word sumac traces its etymology from Old French sumac, from Mediaeval Latin sumach, from Arabic summāq, from Syriac summāq - meaning "red."...
