The plant is doing well and I think it is largely because of the fantastic instructions I got about how to plant it. Thanks so much for the video!

Aniseed Myrtle

One of my favourite natives! Stunning feature tree, beautiful scent, and edible! Everyone comments on it in the garden. It likes water, and was much happier in the ground than in a pot.

Aniseed Myrtle

Easy to grow. Mine is in a large pot as I use it's young leaves chopped in salads and as a flavouring in sauces for fish dishes. Excellent companion for lemon myrtle.
