Ligustrum expansum is a plant species native to China and Vietnam.[2] The Flora of China lists Ligustrum robustum subsp. chinense P.S.Green as a separate taxon,[3] but more recent sources regard this name as a synonym of L. expansum.[1] Combining the two listings yields a distribution within China including the Provinces of Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, and Yunnan.
Etymology
Ligustrum means ‘binder’. It was named by Pliny and Virgil.[4]
