A genus of aromatic deciduous shrubs native to North America and Asia, known for fragrant brownish flowers that smell like strawberries and spices.
From Greek 'kalyx' (cup, chalice) and 'anthos' (flower), literally meaning 'cup-flower' because of the distinctive cup-shaped flower structure formed by sepals and petals.
These shrubs are called 'sweetshop' because they smell so good, and the name 'cup-flower' perfectly describes how their petals and sepals form a deep, rounded bowl—form following aroma!
