Grows best in well-drained, slightly fertile soil,  preferably in a frost and drought free position.
Acmena 'Allyn Magic' is an Australian native evergreen shrub or small tree that belongs to the Myrtaceae family. It is a hybrid species, which is a cross between two native species, Acmena smithii and Syzygium australe.
'Allyn Magic' has a dense, bushy habit and produces glossy, dark-green leaves that are oval-shaped and around 5-8cm long. The new growth on the shrub has a coppery-bronze color which adds interest to the plant. In summer, it produces small, white fluffy flowers which are followed by dark red or purplish berries that are edible and attractive to birds.
'Allyn Magic' is a hardy and low-maintenance plant that prefers full sun to part shade and well-drained soil. It is tolerant of a range of soil types, including clay and sand. It can be pruned to shape and is often used in hedging, screening or as a feature plant in the garden. It is also suitable for growing in pots and containers. The hybrid nature of the plant means it has a good combination of the characteristics of both parent species.
