  • Detailed Description:
    Wax Myrtle is a tough, fast-growing evergreen native to the Southeast. It has aromatic, narrow green leaves and produces small grayish berries that are valued by birds. Adaptable to a wide range of soils, including poor or sandy ground, it thrives in our hot, humid climate and withstands drought once established. Left unpruned, Wax Myrtle forms a large shrub or small tree, but it can be clipped into a dense hedge or screen. Its rapid growth, fragrant foliage, and wildlife benefits make it a versatile choice for both naturalistic and formal landscapes.
