Luma apiculata Myrtaceae

In the low countries, Luma apiculata is a rare occurrence as a tree, but in the British Isles and Ireland, hefty specimens can be found. These are all spectacular appearances. The trees then have the typical light cinnamon-brown trunk that flakes off in small light brown-grey plates. In north-western Europe, the tree does not grow much taller than about six metres; in its natural range, it can reach more than 15 metres. The young twigs are typically reddish haired. The leaves are not very large. They are leathery and glossy dark green. Often the leaf margin is wavy. The white flowers, notable for their four petals and a bundle of stamens, appear from July into October. They may be followed by black-purple, edible fruits. Unfortunately, the tree is not sufficiently hardy to be widely used outdoors. Its suitability is therefore limited to atria, conservatories, inner gardens, etc. It can be planted in any soil, provided it is sufficiently moist but still well-drained, so that no stagnant water remains around the roots. Preferably plant in full sun, although light shade is also tolerated.
