| Description | Luma apiculata
Myrtus Luma is the medium to tall hedge with real traditional style. A lot of people believe the only fast growing larger hedge with fine foliage is the Pittosporum. It is an extraordinarily versatile plant suitable for hedging, screening, topiary, or as a specimen tree, but its small, aromatic leaves respond so well to pruning that it is commonly used as a hedge.
Myrtus luma also makes a wonderful specimen tree if left unpruned. With age it forms an outstanding trunk with cinnamon brown branches. Its bark peels to reveal streaks of pink and beige. What a plant! It really should be seen more in Australian gardens.

| Content | | Maple Mop Tops are a totally unique landscape tool. They are cheap to produce and as a consequence are very economical to purchase, when compared to other standard or topiary trees. They require little maintenance to maintain a lovely classical manicured look. The Mop Top is very hardy, coping well with wind, heat, drought, frost, pollution and poor soils. Because the Mop Top naturally grows small, it is ideal for planting in confined areas or creating avenues in places where conventional trees won’t fit.
