Will try photo again.......
Difficult to say - leaves look like Azalea/Rhoddie.
Neither any of them, it seems to be growing wild. The fruit on it is very unusual and is only about 1cm in size.
Perhaps a bit more information then willie. Is that the fruit in the photo? When does it flower, what do the flowers look like. How big is the plant? Is it a shrub, perennial, annual?
Where is it growing, dry soil, damp?shade?.
In the sticks near Peterborough
Have you say over about 2 years ago added another woodland shrub in that area?
The shrub in the right hand bottom corner looks like an azalia .The shrub / plant with the flower/ fruit could have been with the compost if you have recently put in the azalia Leaves remind me of a skimmia - Im curiose now please send additional info please ?
Just a thought , If the red is the fruit and it turns black , gets soft and squashy it could be a bilbury - BUT if you take some to a nursery which sells fruit trees and the like , then they may be able to help
I think it's a gaultheria
I think that spelling's wrong!
