    Answer

    Dear NativesEnthusiast, Good morning. You have photographed a species of Smilax (greenbriar). These are native plants in the Smilicaceae. I can't tell you which species because I need to see an underside of the leaf to see if it is glaucous (i.e., with a bloom or not). What I can tell you is that you Smilax rotundifolia or S. glauca. Best wishes.
