It tolerates heat and frost, and can be sustained with low amounts of supplemental water. It needs room to spread, but can easily be clipped along walkways and borders to fit the shape of planting spaces. Its best performance occurs for 5-6 years before some plants may die.
How fast does myoporum grow?
Creeping myoporum is fast-growing, so it may need pruning a few times during the growing period if you want to keep it a specific shape or height. The shrub normally grows about 9 inches tall. Use hedge shears to keep it shorter, or use pruning shears to cut individual stems.
How do you maintain myoporum?
Plant myoporum parvifolium 6 to 8 feet apart in well-drained clay, loamy or sandy soil. Myoporum tolerates acidic, neutral or alkaline soils. Choose a spot that gets full sun, which means the plant spends at least half the day bathed in direct sunlight.
