Melastoma – White

Melastoma (White) is a beautiful tropical flowering shrub producing showy, five-petalled pure-white blooms above attractive velvety foliage, followed by small edible dark berries. Hardy and free-flowering, it makes a lovely ornamental hedge or feature plant and attracts bees and butterflies. Plant this sapling in sun to partial shade in fertile, moist, well-draining soil, water regularly, and trim to shape. Elegant and wonderfully low-maintenance, white melastoma brings fresh, clean colour and a natural, wild-garden charm to gardens, borders and large containers.
