I have Carolina Sweetshrub called Spicebush, theVenus sweetshrub and the Michael Lindsay.
Bought them last year. All three are in full sun and take a beating from the winter winds, etc. but they are all growing and so happy. The Michael Lindsay is taking longer to bloom than the other two but it is a younger plant. I just love them and had a difficult time finding them. I will be happy to share when they get bigger. They do not all have a fragrance, Venue and Michael do but Spice does not. Interesting since they are all just about alike. The one I showed above is the Spice...this one is the Venus....not as many shrubs on it just now.

Also just starting are the dwarf pink lilac and the white. The Weigela is just starting.It is so big and here it a picture of it last year. I tried to propagate it last year and the cuttings all died.

Must get to work and sell some stuff. Have a good evening. JB
