Midgen berries (aka. Midyim berry, sand berry) are a native delicious bush food occurring naturally along Australia’s coastal regions. Midgen berry plants have ovate, dark green leaves. The foliage is rich in oil, giving the leaves a gorgeous sheen. In cooler regions, the green foliage takes on reddish tones.

The plant flowers in the spring and summer in their natural habitat. Emerging tender foliage shoots are pink and combined with the lovely, white flowers make attractive specimens in the landscape.

Many Australian gardeners are flocking to fill their landscapes with native plants to reduce their environmental impact from chemicals and fertilizers, and midgen berries fit the criteria. Midgen berry plant is a hardy species that is rarely susceptible to diseases or pests. The berries are, indeed, edible, delicious and nutritious. The mildly crunchy berries provide calcium, iron, vitamin C, and dietary fiber. Midgen berries taste like somewhat akin to a blueberry combined with the essence of ginger, eucalyptus, and nutmeg. Berries can be eaten raw out of hand or are often used to make pies, preserves, or added to fruit salad. Midgen berries have a very short shelf life, that’s why you don't see them much in super market or commercial grow. It’s grow-your-own gardener’s privilege to enjoy and share this great snack around.

Midgen berries are often trained into a low-growing hedge in either full sun to part shade, but they can also be planted in containers, hanging baskets, cottage gardens, in rows, or as mass plantings.

Midgen berry plants adapt to a wide range of soils if there is good drainage combined with consistent moisture. Prior to planting midgen berry, enrich the soil with some well-aged compost and then mulch around the plants well to help retain moisture. Once the plants have been established, there is little need for further midgen berry care beyond keeping an eye on watering it regularly. As mentioned, the plant is afflicted by few diseases or pests. Pruning is only necessary if you want to train the plants into a hedge.
