Carolina Allspice Shrubs are a medium-height, deciduous, native North American bush originating in the southeastern United States. Its native range stretches from Florida to Virginia, but it can also survive in some cooler growing zones.

Carolina allspice is a lovely bush with few care requirements and an easy-to-please nature. It is drought-tolerant, heat-tolerant, insect-resistant, and disease-resistant. It's also not very fussy about how much light it receives and will perform well in full sunshine or partial shade, as long as you put it in well-draining fertile soil.

Other Common Names For Carolina Allspice Shrubs

  • Foundation planting: It is lovely to plant around your home's foundation, and it will help prevent erosion.
  • Shade garden: This species works wonderfully in filtered shade and adds height to a shade garden.

This Shrub Has A Rustic Charm

It is a lovely, rustic bush with natural appeal. It can grow to almost ten feet, but you can prune it to lower the height. This bush has a spread of eight to ten feet, giving the plant enough room for growth.

The Stunning Foliage Of The Shrub
