Sorry, but No 8 is labelled wilsoni and it does indeed flower later than the others and smells of chocolate (ish). Trouble is that there are dozens of different clones of C. montana with wider or narrower tepals and more or less scent. It is so easy from seed that almost every grower has a different clone. Even worse, Wilson brought over more than one form of C. m . wilsoni so there are different versions of that flying around.
Gardening is the great leveller.
