Description

Portuguese Laurel is a hardy, evergreen hedging plant with the glossy, dark green foliage making a brilliant foil for other plants. Dark red new shoots, fragrant racemes of creamy white flowers in April-May and red fruits that turn to black all create further interest.

This useful evergreen hedge plant will tolerate most soil types that are well-drained, including chalky soils when planted in full sun or partial shade. Exposure and heavier shade can be tolerated.

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
