Luma apiculata (syn. Myrtus luma) Hardy form

One of the very finest large shrubs/small trees for bark; a gorgeous smooth, cinnamon-orange, peeling in patches to reveal the white inner bark. Small evergreen leaves and clouds of white myrtle flowers in late summer/autumn followed by edible black fruit. My stock is derived as cuttings from plants known to have taken extreme cold in Northern Ireland Dec' 2010, way below -10c, so are worth trying anywhere with reasonable shelter. Suited to most soils
