  • Cherry Laurel Hedging, botanically known as Prunus laurocerasus Rotundifolia is a live fast growing, vigorous evergreen shrub with a bushy upright growing habit. This hedging plant can grow to a height of between 4 to 8 metres, with a spread of 2.5 to 4 metres when mature, growing at least 90cm each year.

Watering Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil evenly moist while the plant establishes. Once established, water during prolonged dry periods rather than little and often, allowing the soil to drain between waterings. Container-grown plants should be checked more frequently in warm or windy weather.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile loam. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.

Top tip

Trim lightly during the growing season to build a dense framework, but avoid hard pruning while birds may be nesting. It works particularly well in a borders setting; give it enough space and light to develop naturally rather than crowding it.
