The [[leaf|leaves]] are elliptic-acute, 2.5–15 cm long and 1–8 cm broad, with an entire margin, and a roughish texture with slightly impressed veins. The [[flower]]s are white or creamy-white, the [[Corolla (flower)|corolla]] with a tubular base to 4–6 mm long and a four-lobed apex 3–6 mm across, and a strong fragrance; they are produced in broad [[panicle]]s 5–30 cm long and 3–20 cm broad in early summer. The [[fruit]] is a dry, smooth brown [[capsule (fruit)|capsule]] 15–25 mm long, splitting in two to release the two winged [[seed]]s.<ref name=foc/><ref name=hanaki/><ref name=mitomori>Mitomori: [http://www.mitomori.co.jp/hana3/hana2.7.348hasido.html ''Syringa reticulata''] (in Japanese; [http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://www.mitomori.co.jp/hana3/hana2.7.348hasido.html&sa=X&oi=translate& google translation])</ref><ref name=rhs>Huxley, A., ed.
