Simply Scentsational® Sweetshrub
Calycanthus floridus ‘SMNCAF’ PP33550, CPBRAF
Bred by Tim Wood. Developed by Spring Meadow Nursery
As soon as you come near Simply Scentsational Calycanthus, your nose knows: this is something special. It is the Calycanthus that actually lives up to — maybe even exceeds — the oft-described (but seldom smelt) hints of pineapple and bubblegum in the fragrance. Selected and refined over an 18-year period by Spring Meadow’s Tim Wood, the blooms of this North American native are an intriguing deep maroon and appear in abundance through late spring and summer. The blooms are powerfully fragrant, even when they are wilted. You’ve really just got to smell it for yourself. Reaches 6 feet tall and 4–5 feet wide. Zones 4-9.
Available as 2¼-inch, 4-inch and quart containers from Walla Walla Nursery Co. (Booth 8051), Fisher Farms (Booth 13043), Oregon Pride Nurseries Inc. (Booth 8032) and Alpha Nursery Inc. (Booth 18019).
