Portuguese Laurel (Prunus Lusitanica)

A Portuguese Laurel hedge is elegant, evergreen and wonderfully dense, making it perfect for creating a refined, long lasting boundary. Its deep green leaves, red stems and naturally tidy growth give it a more sophisticated look than traditional laurel.

The most popular form, Prunus lusitanica Angustifolia, offers fine textured foliage and excellent screening without growing too wide. It is ideal for both formal hedges and modern gardens.

Portuguese Laurel pairs beautifully with Taxus, Photinia Red Robin, Ilex Nellie Stevens and Cherry Laurel, creating depth and variation in evergreen planting.
