Cherry Laurels (Prunus Rotundifolia)

Prunus laurocerasus rotundifolia also known as a cherry laurel is one of the most popular hedging plants in the UK. They have a vibrant glossy green leaf with small white flower which appear from mid-late spring time, small cherry fruits then appear in the autumn months.

​

Cherry Laurels are very quick growing and have a growth rate of 30-60cm per year, they grow highly dense and are also evergreen which make them ideal for all year privacy screening. We recommend to trim cherry laurels twice a year to maintain density and shape.

​

Cherry laurels are very adaptable to most ground conditions and can be planted in full sun, partial shade and some shaded areas. We recommend to plant at 2-5 plants per metre depending on the initial density and height you desire.
