    This plant grows in my yard. It is over 6 ft tall and very wide. Since it has lots of berries I wondered if it was edible.

    Looks like a honeysuckle, Lonicera sp., most of which have poison berries.

    Foreign origin species of shrubby honeysuckles are abundant nuisance plants in eastern North America.
