Dwarf Myrtle is an excellent hardy shrub mostly used for small to medium hedges. Dwarf Myrtle works in many applications and is very cold and heat hardy. Dwarf Myrtle can be planted in tight rows to create a thick privacy screen for porches, patios or for property lines. Dwarf Myrtles are evergreen plants that will bloom small white flowers in early to mid spring.

Dwarf Myrtle can also be used as a topiary style plant and in pots as well.

Every time a plant is watered, the soil should be thoroughly saturated to a depth of at least 2 to 3 feet and at least as wide as a tree well. Very slow and deep watering is always recommended. During periods of extreme heat, we advise at least 1 additional time per week of watering for all varieties. For periods of heavy rain (1/2” or more) adjust accordingly by possibly skipping a watering session for that time.

If you are looking for a great small hedge to line a walk way this is the best plant. I planted mine behind my white picket fence and it looks so good I am so happy that Trevor recommended this plant to us. Thank you.
