my sis in law has this growing in her garden I think it looks like ailanthus altissima tree of heaven but not sure, can anyone help me out
Please can you add a good close up of a leaflet where it is attached to the midrib.
I hope it is not as Ailianthus is a shocker for sending out sucker.
It is not the right tree for a small garden.
Thanks
see link... one tree dozens of suckers...

I am pretty sure its a variety of sorbus. Leaves are very like sorbus Joseph Rock but you will know better when the berries ripen.
