A morphological comparison of Calycanthus L., Chimonanthus Lindl., and Sinocalycanthus W.C. Cheng and S.Y. Chang is presented. Intergeneric crosses between Sinocalycanthus chinensis (W.C. Cheng and S.Y. Chang) W.C. Cheng and S.Y. Chang and Calycanthus floridus L. produced hybrid progeny. Data are presented comparing the parents and the progeny. × Sinocalycalycanthus raulstonii Lasseigne and Fantz is proposed as the name for these hybrids and is validated with a Latin diagnosis. The original cultivar is named `Hartlage Wine'.
