Prunus ‘Portuguese Laurel’

Prunus lusitanica

Portugal Laurel is an evergreen large bushy shrub/small spreading tree. It features glossy dark green leaves with slender spikes of small, scented white flowers in Summer.

Portugal Laurel is very effective as a hedging/screening plant that can be kept clipped from 1-4 metres, or left to grow into a small spreading tree. Its dark glossy green leaves provide an ideal backdrop for other plants in the garden, and it’s very showy when in full flower.
