The Volcano Cherry Laurel is a compact evergreen that is much smaller than other cherry laurel, yet just as tough and reliable. Plus, it has colorful new leaves of bronzy red that make it a real winner. No more than 6 feet tall and 5 feet wide, the leaves are smaller too, while just as glossy, rich-green and attractive. White flowers in spring followed by black berries are a colorful bonus too, and this compact shrub is perfect for filling beds, planting around your home, and making hedges and privacy screens.
Incredibly adaptable, the Volcano Cherry Laurel will grow in full sun to full shade, and in all kinds of soils too. Once established it is drought resistant, and itās untroubled by pests, diseases and deer. Also resistant to salt-spray it can be grown almost anywhere, from urban gardens to the seaside. Itās naturally dense and bushy, but can be trimmed as needed for super-neat bushes.
