2010.07.28 Vienna XI. district (brownlands - building excavation 163 m AMSL).This place was cordoned off when the shot was taken; construction work was going on there but this place obviously was undisturbed for years already, lest this bush wouldn't be as high already.This here anyway definitely is wild growth of the species which has been introduced as an ornamental plant - but already is occupying natural habitats (and potentially invasive).German name: Gewhnlich-Sommerflieder
