Tree or Shrub (Forest of Dean)








I know nothing about trees or shrubs, I do believe somebody will tell me. It was in the Forest that I saw it, all alone. It was beautiful sight.

  1. Bob. This appears to be Leycesteria formosa (Himalayan Honeysuckle). It's a popular garden shrub, but a native of temperate Asia & China. Not sure what it is doing in the forest unless self seeded by birds?

  2. Definitely honeysuckle, but the rest is beyond me. Pictures are OK as usual.

  3. Agree with Frank on the ID. It's also known as Pheasant Berry.
