Pioneer Women's Memorial Garden (Adelaide) surrounded by green lawns, and four garden beds with ornamental trees and shrubs at the edges. Cornish's choice of plants was influenced by their symbolic meanings, selecting five "Populus nigra "Italica"" (Lombardy poplars) to represent the five women of the Pioneer Women’s Memorial Trust; "Quercus ilex" (holly oak) and "Myrtus communis" (myrtle) for protection and love; "Lonicera" (honeysuckle) for love, generosity and devotion; and "Syringa vulgaris" (lilac) to symbolize memory, protection, youth and tenderness. Here the designer carefully selected plants for their metaphorical meanings. Original plans for the garden included the use of a 'floral clock', that would represent the
1104 Syringa Calvin–Rehoboth Observatory in New Mexico, United States. Lightcurve analysis gave a well-defined rotation period of 5.1547 hours with a brightness amplitude of 0.27 magnitude (). According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite and the NEOWISE mission of NASA's WISE telescope, "Syringa" measures between 19.711 and 24.30 kilometers in diameter and its surface has a low albedo between 0.031 and 0.045. The "Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link" derives an albedo of 0.0434 and a diameter of 22.13 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 12.3. This minor planet was named after the genus
