Violet Honey-myrtle

The Violet Honey-myrtle is a charming, highly structural small shrub growing roughly 50cm to 80cm high, instantly recognized by its horizontally layered, flat-topped tiered branches that spread widely up to a meter across. Throughout spring, it puts on a brilliant seasonal show, completely smothering its rigid branches in dense clusters of small, bright purple-to-violet flowers, perfect for adding texture to rockeries or pots.
