Our Standard Portuguese Laurel Tree is a classic choice for adding height, structure, and evergreen privacy to the garden. With a tall 1.8m clear stem topped by a neatly rounded head of glossy foliage, it creates instant impact while keeping the base free for planting or pathways.
Portuguese Laurel (Prunus lusitanica) is valued for its dense, dark green leaves and elegant form. In summer, clusters of fragrant white flowers may appear, followed by red berries that turn black and attract birds. Evergreen and hardy, it provides reliable greenery and screening all year round.
As a full Standard, this tree has a higher crown compared to a ½ Standard, giving a more formal, upright look. It’s perfect for framing entrances, lining driveways, or adding height behind a fence or wall for extra privacy.
Easy to maintain with just a light trim once or twice a year, the Standard Portuguese Laurel is a long-lasting, versatile tree that suits both traditional and modern gardens.
