North American native from the southeastern U.S. to New York, this elegant tree features striking, creamy-white flowers that emit a delightful lemony fragrance. The blossoms are creamy white, 6" (15cm) across, with 6-15 petals. The flowers carry a very strong vanilla scent that can sometimes be noticed several hundred yards away, and can appear from mid-spring through summer, providing a long-lasting spectacle.
Grows well in regular soil and also adapts to wet soils and shaded areas, making it ideal for diverse landscapes.
Very limited supply!
Type: Small tree or large shrub
Height: 18m, 60'
Hardiness zones: 5-9
Location: Sun or part shade
Seeds per packet: 5
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Then cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 90 days. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification they are then brought back to room temperature 20-22C (68-72F) for them to germinate. Germination is irregular over a long period of time, generally 60-90 days, but some can take longer. Do not discard the planting tray, as patience is needed, and they are well worth the wait.
Ornamental use only. May be poisonous.
