Myrica cerifera is an extremely variable species with respect to habitat and corresponding habit/vegetative morphology. In general, plants that occupy dry, sandy (more xeric) areas tend to be strongly rhizomatous, colonial, and smaller in stature, and to possess smaller leaves. In contrast, plants of more mesic areas are seldom rhizomatous, not colonial, and often large and treelike, and they have larger leaves. 3, record 22, English, - wax%20myrtle

The smallest plant category by size is ground cover. The term "ground cover" is used to describe any low or spreading plant material that reaches a maximum height of 6(15 cm) to 12 in(30 cm). Ground cover is found with a variety of characteristics, from flowering to nonflowering and from woody to herbaceous. Examples of ground cover include English ivy(Hedera helix), myrtle(Vinca minor), pachysandra(Pachysandra terminalis), and common ice plant(Carpobrotus edulis). Ground cover can be thought of as the vegetative "rug" or floor material of an outdoor space.... 3, record 23, English, - ground%20cover
