Thanks to our friends at Xera Plants who introduced us to Myrsine africans and encouraged us to ignore warnings about lack of hardiness. Rounded, shiny dark green leaves are attractive against the red stems. This is a great low to mid-sized shrub to use in the backbone of a small garden.

Late spring.  3 ft. x 3 ft.
