Why Myrtle?
Myrtle has thick, dense foliage covering the entire length of each stem that is perfect for arrangements that need thick coverage. It can be used by itself or as a vertical filler, or it can be cut down for bouquets and corsages.

Tips from our floral experts
Myrtle's woody stems have a slight lemony scent when cut. Remove any foliage that will be below the water line. Cut stems and hydrate in cool water with a low sugar solution for 4-12 hours, then store in a cooler. Check to make sure your stems have enough water and change the water every 24 hours. Keep away from direct sunlight, drafts and excessive heat.
