Portuguese Laurel Instant Hedge

A Portuguese Laurel Instant Hedge will work well in any garden setting. Latin:  Prunus lusitanica ‘Angustifolia’ is a shrub that makes an attractive and compact evergreen hedge. The leaves are ovate and dark green. The hedges overall appearance is subtle, similar to Yew, unlike some of the lighter green showier Instant Hedges.

This Laurel Instant Hedge likes most soils including clay and unlike Common Laurel is also at home on shallow chalk. Portuguese Laurel can be planted in either sun or shade, but it dislikes wet ground.

Prunus lusitanica has an average growth rate (20 – 30 cm/year) and requires trimming once a year, preferably in August.

This Practical Instant Hedge™ in Portuguese Laurel is available at 1.2/1.5m,1.5/1.8m and 1.8/2m high.
