This is a relatively new and very rare hybrid between Calycanthus and Sinocalycanthus. it makes a dense bushy medium sized shrub with glossy green aromatic foliage, yellow in autumn. Unusual, bronze-red star shaped flowers with numerous petals are borne intermittently over a long period from early summer. It is happy in most fertile soils, enriched with humus, in a reasonably sheltered position that is protected from hot sun and cold winds.

    Good quality plants, well packaged for delivery. I have purchased from them before. There was a day's delay in the most recent delivery. It would be good to have messages giving despatch and delivery information.
