Southern waxmyrtle has multiple, twisted trunks
with smooth, light grey bark. Wax myrtle is aromatic
with olive green leaves and clusters of grey-blue,
waxy berries on female plants which attract wildlife.

Waxmyrtle is a popular landscape plant, ideal for use
as a small tree if the lower limbs are removed to
display its form. Waxmyrtle can stand impossible soil
conditions, is rapid-growing and a striking evergreen.
Waxy blue-gray fruit on female plants is a major
source of food for wildlife.
