Luma apiculataLuma apiculata Chilean Myrtle This evergreen shrub or small tree has deep glossy dark green leaves that release a spicy fragrance when crushed. When kept trimmed it makes an excellent hedge, and responds well to regular clipping to maintain a dense, formal or informal screen. For specimen planting, the lower branches can be pruned away to expose the striking ornamental bark to full effect. Blooms with a profusion of small white flowers from mid summer
