Found a couple of these growing close to my pines that I planted. I am thinking maybe some type of cherry tree. Whatever it is the deer have been browsing them.   where to host photos |

Thanks guys. I figured that it was spread by a bird roosting on one of the Pine trees. Next time I will eradicate them. Shouldn't be to hard as I only found 2 plants.

It is NOT buckthorn! If deer browse it, would have enough to feed all of Isanti County!

It is buckthorn Jerry. There are at least two different types of invasive buckthorn, and what Tom has is one of them.
BTW...I do see browsing on young buckthorn (and bush honeysuckle) here. I know that eliminating them is what a guy should be doing, but I'm not totally sold on them being as evil as the government makes them.

Branches are 90 degrees from the main stem.

Only female buckthorn have berries! If you are going to spray, spend the time with those with berries before they turn black!
