Plants
Hello,
Hope someone can help identify this plant. It seeded itself 2-3 months ago and is growing healthily. I would like to keep it and incorporate it into my garden somewhere but I am a bit wary just in case it is too invasive.
Thanks, Joan

first thought was Viburnum Tinus, but not 100% by any means

Not sure what it is.
But definitely not Viburnum.
Viburnum have opposite leaves.
Mystery shrub has alternate leaves.

Could it be Calycanthus (Allspice)?

Cotoneaster?
Apophthegm - a big word for a small thought.
If you live in Derbyshire, as I do.

Sorry.
I was answering Bullfinches pic! Duh!
Looks like the yellow berried Cotoneaster Rothschildianus.
