    Thank you for the very good followed up photo JOHNO1!
    To my eyes this maybe something in the Caprifoliaceae group (honeysuckle family)? And with the slightly hairy opposite leaves, I’m wondering if this could be some type of honey suckle. Copy and paste the included link for one of the bush honeysuckle species Lonicera maackii (Amur honeysuckle) and see if you have a match. One of the diagnostic keys for this species is its hollow stem. Flowers are needed to confirm this suggested ID. When it blooms and isn’t honeysuckle, please resubmit with photo of flowers. Best wishes!
