The Green Honey Myrtle is a striking shrub when in flower with green bottlebrush-like flowers through spring and summer. A dense shrub suitable for screening or hedging with small leaves neatly arranged and spiraling around the stems.

Endemic to a small range around Albany in Western Australia.

Prefers light well-drained soil in an open sunny position, drought resistant but frost tender. Tolerates coastal conditions.

  3. Keep warm & moist, and avoid drying out or waterlogging the growing mix.
