Myrtus ugni, commonly known as the NZ Cranberry, is an evergreen shrub grown for its lush foliage, pretty flowers, and colourful berries. It carries small and glossy, dark green leaves held densely on short stems. The real appeal of this plant are the masses of small, white flowers borne from summer through autumn which result in red berries as it grows to 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide. Myrtus ugni is commonly trimmed into a hedge, added to a mixed planting, maintained in a container, included in a cottage garden, or added to an edible garden.
