Prunus Laurocerasus “Caucasica” Caucasica English Laurel

Prunus laurocerasus “Caucasica” Caucasica English laurel

Origin: Caucasus. Evergreen shrub, upright, well branched and dense. Oval-elongate leaves, 15-18cm long, 3.5-6cm wide, leathery, bright green on the upper side, paler and dull underneath, slightly toothed margins. White flowers grouped in upright clusters 8-12cm, in April- May. Fruit: round drupes 1cm in diameter, red and shiny black when ripe. Adapts well to different types of soil but prefers slightly dry to moist or fertile from slightly acid to alkaline. Tolerates all positions but in complete shade it requires plenty of light. Withstands severe and repeated pruning and all over Europe it is one of the most popular plants used for hedges, both clipped and left to grow freely. Withstands the cold and if it suffers damage from an unexpected hard frost it will vigorously form re-growth at the base. Very decorative shaped into a half standard and also as a standard, which we have recently begun to produce with excellent results.
