Genus CELASTRUS: Climbing shrubs, growing in woods and thickets; with a woody stem an inch or more in diameter, covered with a soft grayish-white bark; twining about the trunks and branches of trees to a great height.
From the similarity of common names, it is often confounded with solanum dulcamara; and the poisonous properties of the latter are placed upon the celastrus, while the good qualities of the celastrus are credited to the solanum.
Botanically, one plant need never be mistaken for the other; and in commerce, the celastrus can at once be distinguished as an orange-red bark, while solanum is a small, dark-purplish and herbaceous stem.

 PCA Alien Plant Working Group - Oriental Bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculatus)
NOTE: Because Oriental bittersweet can be confused with our native American bittersweet (Celastrus scandens) which is becoming less and less common, it is imperative that correct identification be made before any control is begun.
American bittersweet produces flowers (and fruits) in single terminal panicles at the tips of the stems; flower panicles and fruit clusters are about as long as the leaves; the leaves are nearly twice as long as wide and are tapered at each end.
These include American bittersweet (Celastrus scandens) which is native to the eastern U.S. and should only be planted in areas where Oriental bittersweet is not well established or has been successfully controlled, to prevent hybridization with the native species.
