Thanks. I’ve added a second photo to another post. I wasn’t sure how to add to my original.

Eastern redbud. You should have had beautiful flowers in early spring.

That’s maybe a relief. I was fearing Japanese Knotweed!

The green stems in a dense clump are a giveaway, redbud has black stems and they’re woody, spreading etc.
My fears are justified then. This is well over 2m in height and there are examples of others growing in the area
Redbud has a different distribution of veins and doesn’t have red petioles. Sorry 😞
It’s not not knotweed.
