When we drew near, its fragrance hit us. This that looks like the Osmanthus delavayi or Sweet Osmanthus or Delavay Tea Olive had attracted our attention with its bountiful little blooms.
Taken against the shade of the shrub with the exposure biased a stop darker.

Syringa protolaciniata
Plants in the genus Syringa are known as lilacs, and they are native to Eurasia. Syringa vulgaris is the common lilac, widely grown in gardens in temperate regions of the world, and it is taller-growing than the plant pictured here. I have labeled my photo Syringa protolaciniata, but its name and origins are in dispute. Many people think this plant is a hybrid originating in southern Asia, perhaps in Iran or Afghanistan, but in any case it is much shorter than S. vulgaris, though it shares the delightful fragrance for which lilacs are famous. It belongs to the Oleaceae, or Olive Family.
