What is the name of this bush?

[bartholomew]

The bush could be quite high, has green leaves, and little flowers clustered in the shape of a grape but upwards, the flowers come in violet or white, when in bloom they have a very sweet fragrance. In my home country the bush is called "bez", but I cannot find an English equivalent.

The flowers start forming just about now.

Could you, by any chance, mean a Lilac bush ?? .......

Out of interest, what is your home country ? Searching, I found that "bez der" is yiddish for lilac. Didn't think yiddish was a national language anywhere - though obviously appreciate it may still be used by some Jewish groups anywhere (?) ...... then again, could it be Polish ?

P.S: (I think from memory, when I studied Linguistics at Uni that Yiddish evolved mainly from German, though would imagine that as it was spoken by Jews across Europe - it would also be augmented by borrowing from other European languages too.)

End of Linguistics lesson !!! ..... sorry to go off topic !

It could be a Wisteria.
