    Putnam County NY wooded area. Plant is about 5 foot tall. Leaves still green in late November. Note white fruit. Thank you.

    Answer

    Dear Roxi, your plant looks like Viburnum lantata (wayfaring tree). This is a native of Europe that is planted in the northeast and occasionally escapes the cultivated setting. Best wishes.
