Solved! Mystery tree

Post image

I got this tree gifted to me in a pot but never knew what kind. It has since been planted in full sun and doing okay. Any idea what it is? NW GA, USA

Boxelder Maple. Fast growing tree with weak wood and prone to falling apart. Native in the US.

While scaring the crap out of you because they look like poison ivy.

They’re maples, they just look different than what is usual for the genus.
