The fruits of wax
myrtle, also called northern bay berry (Myrica Pennysylvanica), are
covered with a waxy substance, which can be removed and used for
lighting candles. Wax myrtle grows wild in North America. The fruits
are edible. The early settlers in America used these fruits as a
source of food and also used candles made from the wax of these
fruits.
