[nativeplantspnw.com] Alternate Name, Etymology, Common Names: The Pacific Wax Myrtle is still mostly known in the trade as Myrica californica. Morella is probably derived from “Morus,” the Latin name for mulberry, giving it a literal meaning of: “little mulberry.” It is also known as California Wax Myrtle, California Myrtle, or Pacific- or California Bayberry.
