Hello! I am hoping for some guidance on plant ID here. I've attached (3) photos - happy to take more. This is a wooded area, lots of gray dogwoods, shaded by a silver maple lots of solidago and poison ivy. I want to confirm amur honeysuckle before attacking it - working on eradication of them in other area - hoping for a good plant instead! Thanks much!
