Myrtus communis 'Compacta Variegata' (1 qt) | Dwarf Variegated Myrtle (1 qt)
Evergreen. 3 to 5 ft. Part Shade to Shade.
Dwarf variegated myrtle can be kept to 2 feet although it likes to grow to 3 to 5 feet tall, with very small leaves, only 1 inch, and beautiful creamy white variegation edging a sage green center. Leaves are very close together - the plant is very compact, making it a great choice for topiary or bonsai. Shearing and pruning are fine for this plant - it can take lots of abuse and a small container. Evergreen, with small white blooms in the fall and small black berries. Grow in afternoon shade in hot locations, otherwise full sun in cooler locations.
