    Hi Kevin! The Tiger eye is very striking! I'm looking for ground cover for a large area. My property is mostly shade though. Lots of 30'-40' deciduous trees. I want to replace them with evergreens but the price to have them cut down is prohibitive. I am missing out on so many sun loving plants, boo.

    Yup…my parents took out a Sumac…I warned them about the roots…if they disturbed it…they had over 100 babies not doing a good job removing it LOL.

    i have 4 tiger eye sumacs planted in pots in a shady part of my property. I am hoping to grow them close together to create a privacy hedge. Do you know if Tiger Eye Sumacs tolerate dappled shade with 4 hours of strong afternoon sun???

      I think that is plenty of sun, they should do great.

    I have a tigers eye in a pot (just for another week) until I get the ground prepared for it. But it doesn't seem to be doing well in full sun? It's leaves are really droopy. Im in zone 6b/7a, it hasn't been really hot on a consistent basis yet. So I'm worried about where I'm going to put it if I can't put it in the sun? It's in very well draining soil. But if I don't have it in the shade in late afternoon. Today I went out and moved it into an area that starts getting shade around 3pm. But it's still not looking good. I'm worried it won't even make it now once I DO get it in the ground.
    ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I've wanted one of these for years, so I really want it to live.

      I just figured out I'm in heat zone 7, and they're supposed to good in heat zone 8...so I don't know what I'm doing wrong 😒

      I’m assuming the pot you are talking about is the container from the nursery/garden center you purchased it from. When I used to work in garden centers, this “soft wilt” was common during the warm parts of the day. I’m guessing it is rootbound in the pot. Once you get it planted in the ground, you will likely notice a change in character. But be patient; it can take a few weeks for the roots to start biting in. Perhaps it is more stressed than I am aware, but even if you lose the main stem, I’m betting it will come back with a vengeance next season from the roots. They are tough plants.

      @@gardenhike Actually it took it out of the nursery pot, loosened the "soil" (mostly wood chips) around the roots and put it into a big flower pot with potting soil I hand mixed with xl chunky perlite and Fir bark chips.
      It started looking reallllly bad by last night so I used a moisture gauge I use for my indoor plants and it said the potting soil was damp about 6" down. So I repotted it again and didn't water it. And moved it to my covered front porch because we had a thunderstorm last night.
      Today it looks worse 😭
