Customer Tips & Reviews Aniseed Myrtle
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.

It grows well under the harsh conditions of not enough and too much water.

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.
