Lophomyrtus Kathryn Details

Lophomyrtus Kathryn is a NZ native shrub grown for its petite and colourful foliage. The leaves are small, purple-green, and held densely. This evergreen typically grows to 2.5 m tall and 2 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site with good soil moisture. It is tolerant of frost, cool climates, and dry periods once established. Lophomyrtus Kathryn is commonly included in a mixed planting, used as a backdrop for smaller plants, grown in a container, planted around the pool or barbecue area, or trimmed into a hedge. The tidy and compact nature of this plant makes it very popular.
