i don't have my eastern botanical references here in california, so i can't look this up, but are you referring to swamp fly honeysuckle? it has a bright red, twin berry that is fused and rather oblong. i see it growing at my folks place in northern new england. i can collect some seed next time i'm there if that's what you're looking for.

This spp. is known as even Americanfly or Canada honeysuckle. Which looks close like Swampfly honeysuckle,which is also a shrub.

is this invasive or not? I think I have a bush of this in my yard.

swandaughter, there are native honeysuckles which are not invasive. Lonicera canadensis is one of those.

You, on the other hand, may very well have one of the invasive bush honeysuckles. You can post a picture on the Name That Plant forum and have someone identify it for you.

I have a native honeysuckle that is red. The nursery I bought it from propagated it from a wild plant in Alabama and called it "Alabama Crimson" but it is what I know as the native honeysuckle of the southern piedmont. I assume it is not the one you are looking for. Let me know if you want some.
