Myoporum parvifolium 'White' is a low growing, dense and spreading evergreen shrub that is an excellent ground cover, especially on banks and slopes. Not for foot traffic as the brittle stems break easily underfoot. Reddish-green sticky stems are densely clothed with small narrow light green leaves. Small white summer flowers are followed by purple berries. Creeping Myoporum is tolerant of drought and seaside conditions.
How tall and wide does Creeping Myoporum grow?
It typically grows 2–4 inches tall and spreads 6–9 feet wide, forming a thick, carpet-like mat that covers large areas quickly.
When does Creeping Myoporum bloom?
It blooms in spring and summer with small, star-shaped white flowers that attract bees and add subtle beauty to the dense foliage.
What kind of sunlight and soil does it prefer?
Creeping Myoporum thrives in full sun but can tolerate light shade. It prefers well-drained soil and performs well in sandy or rocky areas.
How much water does it need?
Water regularly until established, then only occasionally. Once mature, it’s highly drought-tolerant and ideal for low-water landscapes.

Plant Like a Pro: The Triangle Method
We recommend planting in a triangular (offset) pattern: each plant sits in the gap between the two plants in the row above. This covers more ground with fewer plants and fills in faster than a square grid.
