Not sure what you mean by burning bush - Dictamnus or Kochia? Both of these are commonly known as that and according to the RHS book, there are three plants with that common name.
If you mean Dictamnus, its not invasive, if you mean Kochia, its usually grown as an annual.

If you have grown Euonymous alatus it should be OK in the UK, it's invasive in USA.

Dictamnus doesn't invade, but it does form neat clumps

Unfortunatly this is the only name I have for it, will take a picture and add it on here to see if that helps.

Its Kochia, as bamboo says it is an annual so no problem. Thats the trouble with Common names, many unrelated plants have the same name!
