We have several huge Sumac trees in our yard. They were planted long before we bought the house and we want to control their growth as they send suckers out all over the place.

Is there a way to curtail their invasiveness?

I don't know that there is a way to control the volunteers. I've always just pulled them out of the ground and gotten rid of them. Hopefully, somebody here will have more information than my experience.

Sorry. you just have to keep pulling out the suckers! Maybe you could root a few suckers in a pot and swap them for other plants with your friends.
