CT also has a very rare version of burning bush named Euonymus phellomanus.

The flowers. E. phellomanus flower in 7-flower arrays whereas E. alatus flowers in 3-flower arrays. Seeds are a little different too, with E. phellomanus being red and E. alatus being orange-red (but I believe that would be the harder factor to distinguish).
