The flowers (and to a lesser degree leaves) remind me more of O. indecora which also seems to be more widely established in this region.

I'm not sure which of the two is more common locally, but this collapsed flower isn't really diagnositc of either. I would be hesitant to go either way.

Agree, a good approach. I have added a genus level ID for this one.
