Prunus lusitanica – Large Portuguese Laurel Bulk Hedging
For an established, high-quality hedge with immediate presence, these 10 litre Portuguese laurel plants are the premium choice. Prunus lusitanica is the refined alternative to cherry laurel — smaller, darker, glossier leaves, fragrant spring flowers, and outstanding tolerance of exposed and coastal conditions. At 10 litre grade, you’re investing in a substantially rooted specimen that will establish rapidly and deliver results in the first season.
What’s Included
This listing is for a batch of 15 plants, each supplied in a 10 litre pot. The larger pot size means a more developed root system, significantly faster establishment, and a more immediate visual impact compared to smaller grades.

- Stronger root system reduces establishment time and watering demands
- Ideal for new builds, exposed boundaries, and coastal screening
- Fewer seasons needed to reach full hedge height and density
- A premium, long-lived investment in a refined evergreen boundary

Wildlife & Ecological Notes
Fragrant white flower racemes in late spring to early summer are highly attractive to bees, hoverflies, and other pollinators. Dark berries in autumn provide a valuable food source for blackbirds, thrushes, and other berry-feeding birds. The dense evergreen canopy provides year-round shelter and nesting cover for garden birds.
