Not a native honeysuckle, the other sort, the invasive sort. I have no idea how it got there. Well, okay, it's highly invasive, that's how. It can't stay where it is, the only question is do I rip it out or try to transplant it? Probably more responsible to rip it out.

Definitely rip it out.

It probably arrived by bird deposit. They love the berries.
