Prunus laurocerasus 'Rotundifolia' – Cherry Laurel Bulk Hedging
Prunus laurocerasus 'Rotundifolia' is the UK's most popular evergreen hedging plant — and for good reason. With its large, glossy, rich green leaves and vigorous growth rate, it establishes quickly into a dense, impenetrable screen that provides year-round privacy and wind protection. This bulk buy listing offers exceptional value for landscapers and homeowners establishing hedging at scale.
What's Included
This listing is for a batch of 50 plants, each supplied in a 3 litre pot. Pot-grown stock ensures strong, healthy root systems and reliable establishment whether planted in autumn or spring.
Why Choose Cherry Laurel?
- One of the fastest-establishing evergreen hedging plants available
- Large, bold, glossy foliage creates a dense, lush screen
- White flower spikes in spring followed by dark berries in autumn
- Tolerates shade, pollution, and most soil types
- Low maintenance once established — clip once or twice a year
Planting Guidance
Plant at 2–3 plants per metre for a solid hedge. Cherry laurel thrives in full sun to full shade and tolerates most well-drained soils including clay. Water well during the first growing season. Clip in late summer with secateurs rather than a hedge trimmer to avoid cutting through the large leaves.

Planting Instructions
Plant at 2–3 plants per metre for a solid, dense hedge. Cherry laurel thrives in full sun to full shade and tolerates most well-drained soils including clay. Avoid waterlogged ground.
Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and to the same depth. Backfill, firm in well, and water thoroughly. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Water regularly during the first growing season. Clip in late summer using secateurs rather than a hedge trimmer to avoid browning cut leaves.
Size & Specification
This listing is for 50 plants, each supplied in a 3 litre pot. Pot-grown stock with healthy root systems for reliable establishment. Sufficient to plant approximately 17–25 metres of hedge at standard spacing. UK-grown stock dispatched in robust protective packaging.

Wildlife & Ecological Notes
Cherry Laurel provides moderate wildlife value. White flower spikes in spring attract bees and other pollinators. Dark berries in autumn are taken by blackbirds, thrushes, and other berry-feeding birds. Dense evergreen growth provides year-round shelter and nesting cover for garden birds.
Note: Cherry Laurel can spread aggressively near woodland. Portuguese Laurel (Prunus lusitanica) is a better choice for gardens adjacent to natural habitats.
