Myrtus communis on Spiral Stem Hardy garden shrub perfect for indoors! Myrtle is most commonly seen as a hardy garden shrub but it can be enjoyed indoors too! This pretty evergreen has been trained to have a spiral stem & a rounded topiary head which really does make a charming feature for your home. The aromatic, glossy foliage is a perfect backdrop for its fragrant, white blooms in late summer from July to August. Myrtus communis will be happiest in a cool, bright room, well away from any radiators. It is ideal for a bright porch, conservatory or even outside on the patio during the summer months. Feed & water regularly during from March to September & reduce watering in the winter, keeping the soil just moist. Prune in late spring to help shape the head of the plant & maintain a clear stem.
