Note that it has tripartite leaves.

Do you know which area of Nevada it came from?

Look at Searsia pendulina, which used to be Rhus pendulina.

http://www.wildcard.co.za/blog...

http://www.plantzafrica.com/pl...

Searsia lancea, the leaves look longer and generally narrower.

Whether the trees have different leaves when young is something I don't know. It's not native.

Searsia lancea is indigenous in Zambia, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Lesotho. It is planted in hedges and as ornamental tree, e.g. in South Africa, but also in desert regions of the United States and Mexico, where it is locally naturalized

There's nothing to say the same about Searsia pendulina.

Searsia lancea/Rhus lancea is said to be readily available in local Nevada nurseries. https://www.unce.unr.edu/areas...

If it readily grows wild or self sows , that would explain these , I do not honestly know anything other than that , they are seedlings from an older plant , and that is where they are from

Rhus lancea is listed on City of Las Vegas Tree Selection in Medium size trees, and further down with a description. I think this has to be it.

http://digitalscholarship.unlv...

Leaves vary greatly..

Leaves arranged spirally, 3-foliolate; stipules absent; petiole 2–7 cm long, slender but slightly winged near apex, grooved above; leaflets sessile, narrowly lanceolate, often slightly sickle-shaped, 7–24.5 cm × 0.5–3 cm, cuneate at base, acute at apex, margins entire, thinly leathery, pinnately veined with numerous lateral veins.


http://www.prota4u.org/protav8...

Searsia lancea is now the accepted name.
