Prunus Lusitanica Angustifolia - Portuguese Laurel are fantastic laurels that are a great alternative to the classic cherry Laurel. They are more formal in appearance with their dark green, medium-sized pointed foliage set against red stems. They are slower growing, you would get 1/2ft of growth a year. A lot tougher than the cherry laurel and can withstand exposed sites, perfect for the North of the country.

Where to Site Your Portuguese Laurel Hedging

Portuguese Laurel Hedging thrives in moist, well-drained soils. Although these hardy plants can tolerate poor, shallow, and slightly chalky conditions, it is best to avoid such environments. Prunus Lusitanica Angustifolia is highly adaptable and can flourish in both warm and cold, exposed sites as well as in partial shade. To maintain its optimal health, regular pruning and fertilising are essential to achieve the desired height, shape, and condition.

Growth & Pruning

Portuguese Laurel Hedging can reach up to 8 meters in height, with an annual growth rate of 30-60 cm (about 1-2 feet). This moderate growth rate makes pruning and maintenance manageable without the hedge becoming overgrown. This type of hedge responds well to pruning and can be shaped into various forms and sizes, typically requiring pruning twice a year depending on your preferred hedge size.

Consider removing berries and flowers to enhance the vitality of your Portuguese Laurel Hedging. This practice directs the plant's energy towards producing lush, green foliage rather than decorative berries and flowers, although this step is optional.

Characteristics

  • Foliage: Glossy dark green, year-round (if well maintained)
  • Stems: Red
  • Flowers: Fragrant white flowers in spring
  • Berries: Inedible red berries that turn black/purple in winter
  • Durability: Tougher than Cherry Laurels and can withstand exposed sites
  • Other: Winter hardy, moderate growth rate

By following these guidelines, your Portuguese Laurel Hedging will thrive as a resilient and aesthetically pleasing feature in your garden.
