Question
I found this very attractive shrub at the edge of an outlet stream for a flood control dam in Wentworth, NH. There are 3 or 4 distinct plants 6 to 8 feet tall, all with alternating shiny (what might be described as leathery) leaves, 5-part flowers and red berries. Could this be Frangula alnus a known invasive?
Answer
Dear gdewolf, yes, you have photographed Frangula alnus (glossy false buckthorn). Beautiful images, thank you for sharing them here.
