mixed blessing

Walking over to production, noticing the intensely red berries of the burning bush. They are redder than the leaves. I don't remember noticing that before. The burning bush is beautiful this time of year. It's not hard to understand how what I'm sure is a non-native plant ended up being planted here. I just got done with a very large project to remove multifloral rose from a section of my property. They are also an non-native plant that has become a big problem as an invasive species. Once it gets started, it's very difficult & painful to remove. They also have beautiful red berries this time of year, and, again, it's easy to see how they got imported here. Definitely a mixed blessing
