Midyim Berry

Midyim Berry (Austromyrtus dulcis)

A delightful and hardy native shrub, Midyim Berry is found along Australia's coastal regions and is prized for both its beauty and bush tucker value. Growing to around 1–2 metres tall, this compact plant features dense, rounded foliage, making it perfect for hedges, borders, or as an ornamental feature in native gardens.

In spring and summer, Midyim bursts into bloom with small white flowers, followed by sweet, edible berries that are white with purple speckles—delicious fresh or used in jams and desserts.

Growing Tips:

• Prefers well-drained soil – avoid soggy spots

• Likes full sun to part shade

• Drought-tolerant once established

• Can be pruned to shape and control size

• Ideal for native gardens, edible landscapes, or container growing
