Planting & Care

A dense evergreen hedge with large, glossy, bright green leaves providing excellent year-round screening.
Produces delicate white flowers in spring, followed by attractive red fruits that ripen to black in autumn.
A fast-growing and fully hardy hedge, ideal as a screen or windbreak, reaching up to 8m but easily maintained at 1-5m.
Recognised by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators', attracting bees and other beneficial insects to your garden.
Very low maintenance, thriving in most conditions from full sun to partial shade.
Warning: Leaves and fruits are toxic if ingested. It is advisable to wear gloves when handling.

Species: Laurel
Features: Evergreen
Flowering Season: Late spring (March, April)
Flower Colour: Small white flowers in erect racemes to 12cm in length
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Habit: Bushy hedge
Hardiness: Fully hardy (H5: -15 to -10°C)
Eventual Height & Spread: 8m+ unless pruned
Growth Rate: Fast (30-60cm per year)
Soil Type: Any well-drained, fertile soil
Pest & Disease Resistance: Good resistance. May be affected by vine weevil, leaf-mining moths, or powdery mildew.

Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
Soil Preparation: Thrives in normal to clay soils but dislikes very chalky or shallow soils. Prefers well-drained, loamy soil. If your soil is heavy or sandy, mix in perlite or fine horticultural grit to improve drainage.
Pruning: To maintain shape and size, trim twice a year in early June and again in late September. Established plants can be cut back hard to ground level to rejuvenate them.
