Myrtus microphylla ‘Pumila’ is a compact, dwarf variety of the common myrtle, part of the Myrtaceae family. It grows slowly to about 50–80 cm in height, with a rounded, dense habit. The small, glossy, aromatic leaves and white, fragrant flowers make it ideal for borders, low hedges, rock gardens, and containers. It is highly decorative and requires minimal maintenance.
