A rapidly growing woody vine found along forest or thicket edges, in fields, on roadsides. Originally a horticultural import, but has spread to be a serious problem and is even seen in NYS parks in the Finger Lakes. Leaves vary considerably and the vine is easily confused with grape if the berries are still green. More ID info can be seen in the link below.
