Don’s Dwarf Wax Myrtle is a dense rounded evergreen shrub with aromatic glossy deep olive green foliage. The flowers are inconspicuous but fragrant and the female flowers give way to clusters of blue-grey berries that persist into winter. Best in full sun and moist soils. Can be considered a fire hazard in some areas, as the aromatic compounds of the foliage and stems are flammable. Leaf spot resistant.
