Hi. The flowers on the plant are maroon and oriental looking flowers. The tree has a sweet smell like pineapples. I am located in New England and have not seen any of these plants any where else. Thank You!
Hi Beng, photos, including a flower close up, may help a lot. How to attach shown here www.botanicalgarden.ubc.ca/forums/showthread.php?t=725
Calycanthus? Probably too early for that. Maybe Magnolia liliiflora or one of its hybrids, although it usually smells of grapes or fermentation to me. I suppose another nose could register pineapple.
