FREE: 20 Sweet Shrub seeds

The listing, 20 Sweet Shrub seeds has ended.

You are bidding on 20 Sweet Shrub seeds that I have harvested from my own bushes.
FYI: Sweet shrub (Calycanthus floridus) has many common names, including Carolina allspice, strawberry-bush, sweet bubby, sweet Betsy and spicebush. As these names indicate, it is valued for the sweet, often fruity fragrance of its flowers. Sweet shrub is native along the east coast from Pennsylvania south to northern Florida and west to Mississippi. In South Carolina it is native in the Upstate and Central regions, and grows well throughout the state.
Mature Height/Spread
Sweet shrubs grow 3 to 9 feet tall by 6 to 12 feet wide. Plants grown in full sun will be shorter than those grown in part shade. Sweet shrubs have a dense, broad, rounded form in cultivation. They are multi-stemmed shrubs that tend to spread widely by growing new shoots (suckers) along the outer edges of the clump. Wild plants are much more open, tall, and even scraggly.
Growth Rate
Plants grow at a moderate rate of 12 to 18 inches per year under ideal growing conditions of deep, moist, loamy soil and with partial shade. Growth rate will be much slower in dry soil and full sun.

Flowers are long lasting on the shrub and also make good cut flowers. They can also be dried and added to potpourri.
During summer they are a lustrous, dark green, and then turn golden-yellow before falling in autumn.
