MYRICA PENSYLVANICA
Grower Notes:
Myrica pensylvanica is commonly referred to as Northern Bayberry Bayberry or Candle-Berry. It is a deciduous, dense shrub that is native to portions of the eastern US. It has a variable size and produces waxy, blue-green berries in fall and winter that are aromatic when crushed. Its glossy, gray-green leaves remain on the plant in Southern climates and are quite fragrant.
Northern Bayberry is especially noteworthy for its drought, erosion and salt spray tolerance. It will tolerate poor soils conditions, tidal mashes and coastal sand flat. It enjoys full sun or partial shade in slightly acidic soils. It is ideal for erosion control and borders.
