Portuguese laurel
£85 – £85
The Portuguese laurel shrub has dark green glossy leaves, and because it is evergreen, makes an attractive year round option for hedging. In summer, small white flowers appear which are attractive to bees and butterflies, alongside small red berries which are attractive to birds.
This plant is known for being extremely hardy. As climate change causes extreme temperature fluctuations, rest assured that this plant can survive temperatures as low as -15 celsius. It’s also a pollinating plant so once it begins to flower, it’ll provide food for pollinators, such as bees and butterflies.
