Allspice Tree
From LoveToKnow Garden
Allspice Tree (Calycanthus) - N. American shrubs with flowers of pleasant fragrance. C. occidentalis is from 6 to 8 feet high, with large maroon-crimson flowers of fine fragrance, and is worthy of cultivation. C. floridus is smaller and not so dense with purplish-red flowers, strongly-scented. The two described are hardy, the Carolina species having been grown since 1757. They flourish best when somewhat shaded by other trees and where the ground is damp. The Winter Sweet, Chimonanthus, is sometimes included among these shrubs in lists.
