Myrtus communis is the name of the common myrtle (or mortella), a classic aromatic plant of the Mediterranean scrub. It grows as a dense bush from which essential oils with numerous beneficial properties are extracted. Its berries are the main ingredient of myrtle liqueur, Sardinia's signature product. In cooking, it can also be used to flavor meats or to prepare mozzarella with mortella, one of the typical products of Cilento.

  • Growth habit and height: dense bush of 1-3 metres.
  • Foliage: evergreen, small, glossy and aromatic leaves.
  • Flowering: fragrant white flowers.
  • Fruit: dark berries in autumn, used to make myrtle liqueur.
  • Hardiness: resistant to drought and salt spray, tolerates down to -10°C.
  • Ideal for: hedges, borders and focal points, including low-maintenance gardens.
  • Soil: well-drained.
  • Exposure: sun or partial shade.
  • Watering: regular in the first few months, then it is quite drought-tolerant.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
