Calycanthus – Aphrodite Carolina Allspice
SKU: n/a.Looking for something a little different? You’ve found it in Aphrodite Calycanthus! Covered in big, glossy leaves, this shrub explodes with enormous cupped flowers that look a bit like a deep red magnolia. They start in early summer and continue through the season. Its large size is idea for the back of the garden or privacy.
The fragrance of the flower varies based on the age of the bloom, the time of day, and the flower itself. Some people say they smell like pineapple, others apples, others bubblegum, and some get no scent at all. Even if you never sense a whiff off this plant, its fabulous flowers are more than enough reward.
Tolerant of a wide range of soils including consistently wet, Carolina Allspice thrives just about anywhere so long as it gets sun to part shade. Prune immediately after flowers to maintain smaller sizes.
