  • Question

    These vines seems to be invasive as they are everywhere and coming out of the ground of the lawn itself. Is it bittersweet? Honeysuckle?

    Answer

    Dear NaniWane, yes, you've photographed Celastrus orbiculatus (Oriental bittersweet). Notice that the leaves are alternate (in honeysuckle they would be opposite). Best wishes.
