Oooh, this stuff is a nuisance. It's a very widespread invasive exotic, having a habit for choking out space for native shrubs and wildflowers. Many parks make an effort to clear it out from forests. What really makes it so volatile is that the fruit is eaten by songbirds and spread around like crazy.
