| Hi and welcome. It might give us more clue to the plant's ID if you could give us a picture of the whole plant. i.e. if it is a shrub, or a tree, or a clump etc. Elaine "Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm." –Winston Churchill |

| Reminds me of a Rhus copallina but that may be wrong. I like the photos and look forward to learning the identity. Edited to add: I must have my wings on crooked!! Might be this one: Euonymus alatus (Winged Burning-bush) Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

I underestimated the height. It is higher . Probably 7feet. The broom is for scale. Thank you for your quick response.  |

| I also think it is Euonymus alatus, will not be to long now for the great red fall colors if so. |

| Thank you, I have a vague recollection that it does become red in the fall. So it is most likely Euonymus alatus. I will try to remember to post a picture of it when it turns red. After that, I still do not know what I will do with it. |

| While you decide whether or not to keep it, you could keep adding photos to the NGA database; never enough photos. Always room for more! Burning Bush (Euonymus alatus) Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

| When (if) it turns red, I will try to post it. Thank you |
