Cherry Laurel Hedging (Prunus laurocerasus)

Cherry Laurel (Prunus laurocerasus), also commonly known as English Laurel or Common Laurel, is one of the most popular evergreen hedging plants in the UK.

Cherry Laurel hedging is a popular choice for creating fast, dense, evergreen privacy in UK gardens. Identifiable by glossy leaves and the ability to produce flowers and fruits, Cherry Laurels form a thick, reliable screen that looks smart year-round while remaining easy to maintain.

At Grasslands, our dedicated horticulturalists grow specialist hedging plants, including Laurel hedges, Leylandii hedges and Privet hedges. Our Cherry Laurel hedging is available in a range of sizes, making it ideal for low borders or for creating privacy at heights of up to 3.5 metres, with UK-wide delivery available.

All Cherry Laurel hedging supplied by Grasslands is grown for UK conditions and delivered nationwide.

Why choose Cherry Laurel for hedging?

  • Evergreen foliage for year-round privacy
  • Fast growth (typically 30–60cm per year)
  • Dense habit for effective screening
  • Tolerant of shade, heavy clay and chalky soils
  • Low maintenance once established

Cherry Laurel hedge growth rate & height

Cherry Laurel hedging typically grows by 30–60cm per year. If left untrimmed, it can eventually reach heights of 6–8 metres, although most garden hedges are easily maintained between 1.5 and 3.5 metres with regular pruning.

How far apart to plant Cherry Laurel hedging

  • Smaller plants (4.5L–7.5L pots): 2–3 plants per metre
  • Medium plants (10L–40L pots): 2 plants per metre
  • Large instant hedging (110L): 1–1.5 plants per metre

What is the difference between Cherry Laurel and Laurel Hedging?

Cherry Laurel is one type of laurel hedging plant. Laurel hedging is the umbrella term for evergreen hedges within the laurel family, which includes Cherry Laurel, Portuguese Laurel and other varieties grown for screening and privacy.

What are the different types of Cherry Laurel?

  • Cherry Laurel ‘Etna’ – A compact, slower-growing variety (20–40cm per year), ideal for smaller gardens or lower hedges.
  • Cherry Laurel Hedging – A fast-growing option (30–60cm per year), perfect for creating dense privacy quickly.
  • Cherry Laurel ‘Elly’ – A naturally upright variety, ideal for more formal hedges.

Cherry Laurel vs Portuguese Laurel

Cherry Laurel is often compared to Portuguese Laurel hedging. Cherry Laurel grows faster with larger leaves, making it ideal for rapid screening, while Portuguese Laurel offers a slightly more refined appearance.

Where to site your Cherry Laurel

Cherry Laurel thrives in moist, well-drained soil but adapts well to clay, chalky or shallow soils. It tolerates exposed sites and full shade. For best results, plant using good ground preparation and follow our hedge planting guide.

Caring tips for your Cherry Laurel

Watering Cherry Laurel
  • Water regularly during establishment and in dry weather to support strong root growth.
Pruning Cherry Laurel
  • Prune once or twice a year to maintain shape and encourage dense growth.
Feeding Cherry Laurel
  • Feed in spring with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser for healthy growth.
