Why Choose the Myrtle Plant?

The classic myrtle plant (Myrtus communis) is a garden favourite thanks to its glossy green leaves, fragrant blossoms in spring and summer, and its ability to thrive in a variety of conditions. It's fast-growing, drought-tolerant once established, and suitable for coastal gardens—a practical and beautiful solution for New Zealand's diverse climate.

Myrtle also holds cultural and culinary significance, known for its use in traditional recipes and home remedies. The plant’s dense growth makes it ideal for creating privacy screens or windbreaks, while its attractive flowers attract bees and beneficial pollinators to your garden.

Tips for Growing Myrtle in New Zealand

When you bring home a myrtle plant for sale from our nursery, success begins with the right spot. Myrtle prefers full sun to part shade and well-drained soils. Add a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Regular but moderate watering encourages deep roots, and a yearly prune after flowering will help maintain a compact, bushy shape.

Myrtle plants are hardy and relatively pest-free, but keeping them well-fed with organic compost and slow-release fertiliser encourages lush growth and prolific flowering.
