Thanks, Kitty, but I'm looking for something more in the 4' to 6' range, 
which is about what the Rhus copallina I've seen has been.  Also, spreading by 
root suckers sounds like it might become a problem.  
That's the one that looks like poison ivy, isn't it?  Perhaps I could plant 
it along an area I want to keep people out of?
