(Glossy Privet)
Ligustrum lucidum

[שאלה]
נסה לנחש איזה עץ ישראלי הוא קרוב משפחה של עץ סיני זה. רמז: כמו שעץ זה נמצא ליד הבריכה שלפניך, קרוב משפחה שלו נמצא ליד הבריכה בכניסה לקמפוס.

[a question]
Guess which native Israeli tree is a close relative of this Chinese tree and the other privets. Hint: Just as this tree stands beside this pool, its relative stands beside the pool at the campus entrance.

[התשובה לשאלה]
עץ הזית (עץ מס.15 Click for sign's details) הוא קרוב משפחה של עץ זה, אף שהדמיון ביניהם קטן.

[The Answer to the question]
Though there is little obvious similarity, the olive (tree 15 Click for sign's details), is a close relative of this tree.
