  Aisle Say (NY): THE SYRINGA TREE
Syringas, as a family, are great purple-flowering trees related to the lilac.
I had assumed that, this being semi-autobiographical work, the author had seen or known or loved a particular syringa tree as a child and that it was her own personal memories that gave it meaning.
Syringas, like the Jacarandas that turn the South African capital of Pretoria purple each October, are also fierce competitors for natural resources and contribute to the persistent water shortages that plague the country.

 On "Syringa"
When song rivals the flowers, it turns the "fissure" of quarry into a generative source, "the well of dim noon." The poem presses the point by another play on "syringa," which is derived from "syrinx," the Greek word for panpipe.
In "Syringa," Ashbery explicitly invokes the myth of Orpheus, particularly the aspect focusing on renewal or re-membering after fragmentation or dismemberment.
And in the end, he is not torn apart; rather, he is simply used up, burned out like a star, and the poem continues to its finish without its Orpheus and yet with something of the beauty of his example, his fatal trajectory.

"The Syringa Tree" takes place in South Africa and covers most of the 1960s and '70s when those controlling the national polies of separation of the races were most desperate to maintain control of the country.
However, the political and social problems addressed in "The Syringa Tree" are expressed in a gentle caring manner that is more thoughtful than incendiary.
The central figure in "The Syringa Tree" is Elizabeth, who we first meet in 1963 when she is a child, 11 years old.

 Species Guide Lilac Syringa Bonsai
Syringa is a genus of about 20 species of deciduous shrubs and trees found in woodland and scrub from Europe to Asia.
Lilacs are primarily grown as bonsai for their panicles of small, tubular, usually very fragrant flowers which are usually in shades of white, blue, pink or purple.
Most garden varieties of Lilac are grouped under the name Syringa vulgaris which are very tolerant of hard pruning necessary for bonsai cultivation; there are however some Syringa species that will only tolerate very light pruning, are unsuitable for root-pruning and should be avoided.
