The Myrtus communis 'Luma', often referred to as the Chilean Myrtle, is a beautiful evergreen shrub characterized by its small, glossy, aromatic leaves and smooth, cinnamon-colored bark that peels away to reveal lighter tones beneath. It is a prized ornamental plant that adds a refined, Mediterranean flair and delicate texture to bright, airy indoor spaces.
☀️ Light: Bright, direct to indirect sunlight. To maintain its health and unique foliage color, this plant requires plenty of bright light; several hours of direct sun daily will help it thrive.
