‘Aphrodite’ is a gorgeous new Calycanthus, that is ready to bloom from May until August. It produces fragrant magenta flowers, that sit upon a multi-stemmed habit of deep green foliage. Tropical in appearance and highly attractive to pollinating insects, be sure to incorporate into exotic, low maintenance and scented gardening schemes. Happy to develop in dappled shade, watch it flourish to a height and spread of 2m. A stunning and unusual shrub, rarely seen in gardens, Calycanthus ‘Aphrodite’ well-deserves to be named after the Greek Goddess of Beauty! Acclimatise Calycanthus plants to outdoor conditions for a period of 7 to 10 days prior to planting in their final positions. Grow Calycanthus in borders, in moist, fertile, well drained soil that is rich in organic matter. Choose a sheltered position in full sun or part shade. Water regularly until Carolina allspice plants are fully established.
