Laurel Common Hedging (Prunus rotundifolia)
Prunus Rotundifolia
OUT OF STOCK
Commonly known as the Cherry Laurel, Prunus Laurocerasus Rotundifolia or Common Laurel is one of the most popular and easily recognisable varieties of hedging shrub within the UK. Throughout the year, this dense, evergreen Laurel bush boasts an abundance of lush, glossy green leaves and also produces delicate creamy-white flower spikes from March through to April which are guaranteed to attract bees and other pollinators into the garden. Resilient and hardy, the Cherry Laurel flourishes well in full sun or shaded areas of more mature trees, where its sheer versatility has earned it a well-deserved RHS Award of Garden Merit. A fantastic, low maintenance addition to borders, woodland spaces and wildlife gardens, we recommend planting 60cm apart for optimum results. Supplied as 30-60cm loose rooted plants.
