About Cherry Laurel Hedging 125/150cm Root Ball Delivery from October

Cherry Laurel Hedging (Prunus laurocerasus 'Rotundifolia') – 120/140cm Root Ball

Robust, Evergreen Privacy with Instant Impact

Cherry Laurel is a vigorous, broadleaf evergreen ideal for creating tall, dense hedges quickly. Supplied here at a height of 120–140cm with a substantial root ball, these plants offer immediate screening and structure for gardens, driveways, or boundaries. The large, glossy green leaves provide excellent year-round coverage with a lush, attractive appearance.

Seasonal Beauty & Growth

Bright, fresh foliage emerges, creating a vibrant, bushy screen. Upright white flower spikes may appear on mature plants, attracting pollinators.

Summer:
Rich, dark green leaves form a thick, glossy canopy. Growth continues steadily, enhancing coverage and shape.

Foliage remains evergreen and dense. Small red fruits may follow flowers, turning black in winter and attracting birds.
