Evergreen structure with a quiet Mediterranean soul.
Graceful yet grounded, the Mastic Tree brings year-round greenery and refined texture to the desert garden. Its dense canopy of deep green, leathery leaves create a natural screen or sculpted form, equally at home as a small tree or large shrub.
With a naturally elegant shape and exceptional drought tolerance once established, it’s a timeless backbone plant for warm, waterwise landscapes.
Sun: Full Sun to Light Shade
Water: Low (moderate while establishing)
Mature Size: 15–25 ft tall × 15–25 ft wide
Cold Tolerance: Down to 15°F
Native To: Mediterranean region
Train it early if you want a tree form—otherwise it will naturally grow as a full, multi-trunk shrub. Takes well to pruning, making it ideal for hedging, screening, or soft structure in the garden.
“Should I grow this as a tree or a hedge?”
“How fast will it fill in for screening?”
Waterwise • Thoughtfully Grown • Desert Adapted
Evergreen structure for Southern Utah landscapes
