Burning Bush (Euonymus Alatus) 10 seeds

Burning bush is a large deciduous shrub that originates from China, Japan and Korea. This popular landscape shrub has a large spreading habit, compound leaves of dark green and prominent corky 'wings' along its stems. But, it is best known for its fall foliage of glowing vibrant red, thus the name burning bush.
Late in the season this shrub becomes covered with four-lobed capsules that split open to reveal orange-red seeds, which are relished by birds and disseminated everywhere. These seeds germinate readily and grow quickly causing this plant to be invasive in natural environments across North America.
Burning bush is shade tolerant, but grows best in sites with full sun and well drained, fertile soil. (Info source: Learn2Grow.com)Burning bush is shade tolerant, but grows best in sites with full sun and well drained, fertile soil. (Info source: Learn2Grow.com)
