Flora Incognita identified this common lilac (Syringa vulgaris) as Midland hawthorn and this is all you need to know about those fancy AI apps.

Perhaps a disclaimer because I wan't really clear about it: Only the white flower is a common lilac; the blurry magenta spots in the background belong to an unidentified, cultivated rose & are not fruits but blossoms (both plants lacked thorns & both died a year before the 2022 drought).
I let FI scan a raw shot without the blur & the rose largely cropped out & FI still insists that this is a Midland hawthorn without providing an alternative. Their AI went from good to stupid & proud of it.
