Why Wax Myrtle Trees?
If a partition or screen is your objective, then the Wax Myrtle performs flawlessly. Its dense foliage and quick-growing nature lends itself to being an excellent choice for shrubs. Plant them in a row to define your property line, or to accent your front patio.
And the Wax Myrtle's foliage and berries are pleasingly fragrant, making it a great addition to your outdoor living space. The fruit matures in the fall and remains throughout winter, attracting a multitude of birds. Plus, Myrtle is 'green' in more ways than one, as it returns nitrogen to the soil and organically repels insects.
Please Note: Plants are shipped as either male or female, and we cannot guarantee which you will receive. Only female plants produce berries, but male plants are necessary for pollination.

Wax Myrtle’s
Plants were received timely and in good shape. All 8 plants are doing well and growing.
Growing fast
I bought 6 of these bushes and they all arrived the same day! They looked pretty good. I was worried when quite a few branches were broken, but the bush doesnt seem to mind it. It just pushes out a new one! I'm trying to cover this ugly 100ft red brick wall the hoa put up to block out traffic noise behind my house. They say these grow fast and I have to admit after only a month they have lots of new growth! I hope the 6 I got spread out nice and wide quickly so I dont have to see that brick lol.
