Calycanthus × Raulstonii Hartlage Wine | 2L Pot

A beautiful summer-flowering shrub. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moderately fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: May to September Hardiness: fully hardy First previewed at Chelsea in 2010, this rare and delightful shrub will often produce its lightly scented flowers from late spring to early autumn. The flowers themselves are a delight and form along the branches. They are a rich shade of burgundy red, with just a hint of cream towards their centre – very attractive against the backdrop of the lustrous green foliage, which usually turns buttery shades in autumn. Garden care: Shelter from cold drying winds. Remove dead or damaged stems in late winter or early spring.
