Description:

Eugenia Myrtifolia is a shrub that can reach heights of 4 to 5 meters. Its bright green leaves change their hue with the seasons, adding an unparalleled charm to your garden. Additionally, we can't overlook its beautiful red-orange berries, which provide a touch of color for much of the year.

This shrub is easy to cultivate, although its growth can be a bit slow initially. It's especially suitable for hedge formation, as it tolerates pruning well. Furthermore, it becomes fascinating when used as an ornamental specimen in a pyramidal shape, as a tree, or as a ball.

How to Care – Watering and Fertilization:

Eugenia Myrtifolia thrives in well-draining soil with a layer of fertilized earth. Watering should be moderate, ensuring that the substrate is slightly damp but avoiding waterlogging. You can supplement its growth with suitable fertilizers to ensure healthy development and abundant flowering.
