Syringa villosa, the villous lilac or late lilac[1][2] is a shrub native to Korea, the southern part of the Russian Far East (Primorye) and northern China. There are two subspecies currently recognized (April 2014);[3] these are regarded as separate species in Flora of China.[4][5] Combining the ranges for the two taxa yields a range within China of Hebei, Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Liaoning.

Syringa villosa is a shrub that grows up to 4 meter tall, with red, white, pink or purple flowers.[5][6] The flowers are long and highly fragrant, and flower in early summer.[7]
