  • Question

    I live in Plymouth, Mass. and I'm attempting to identify the plant behind my house that is prevalent through the woods. I've read about the burning bush being extremely invasive. I'll be attempting to catalogue more data such as fruit (if any exists) and further close ups of the stems and other photos during different seasons, but just wanted to try this now to see if it is obvious. I live near Cranberry bogs - sandy soil / bogland with mossy trees. The red fall foliage increased my curiosity.
