*Hisses like a vampire confronted by sunlight*
Bush Honeysuckle. Kill it. Kill it all! The stuff is also called Siberian honeysuckle. It is one of the few plants listed as invasive that I think really is. Give it time to get a foothold and it will kill off every other plant around it. Originally it came to your area through Oxford Ohio Audubon Society because of the beautiful sweet flowers and bright berries that birds love dearly. In that part of the world, it out competes every other plant. It will put on leaves first and drop them later than anything else. Nothing eats it other than birds spreading the seeds.
Branches can grow several feet in a year, spreading quickly out from the base. At full size, it becomes a 15 food bush that blocks out almost all sunlight and leaves dead earth below it. If they take over a plot of forest, no new saplings will ever grow there until it has been killed. Especially fun is that it refuses to go out without a fight. Cutting it back will require several years of constant attention if you allow it to get established. Most of the time people had to use herbicides on the cut stumps and even then it would come back sometimes. I have managed to kill it by digging out the majority of large
roots and then cutting away the tops when they poke up.
As a child I loved it. Sweet scented flowers with a sugary drop if you pulled the base. Pretty berries that squished when ripe and that drew birds in droves. Long sticks hollow in the middle more often than not and which grew so quickly and well that a destructive young boy couldn't keep it from growing. As I hit late teens, I realized that it was killing off every bit of woods in my area. Choking out all other things so that where it was present, no wild gingers, mayflowers, grasses or anything else could survive. No new
trees had grown in one section of 'forest' in almost thirty years.
Some might not agree with me, but I would just as soon it never existed outside of Siberia. If you value other plants, you won't let that thing get into your own
land. Of
course, since you found this on a neighbor's plot, I suppose you can't
root it out. Instead try for maybe honeysuckle wine or something.
