About this plant

‘Angustifolia’ Portuguese laurel has narrow, glossy green leaves that create a rich evergreen backdrop.

It develops into a dense, upright shrub, forming a thick, leafy screen that provides privacy even in winter.

Best used for

Use for a clipped hedge, privacy screen or structured specimen.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 20–40 cm per year Medium growth
Expected mature size 3–5 m high / 2–4 m wide

Expect around 20–40 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 3–5 m in height and 2–4 m in width. Allow room for a thick, upright hedge-like framework; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.

How to care

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Trim lightly after the main spring growth to maintain the desired outline and encourage fresh shoots.

What you will receive

You will receive a healthy container plant in the selected size. The plant is prepared for delivery and supplied ready for planting.

Natural variation in shape, branching, leaf density and seasonal appearance is normal. Plants may look different depending on the time of year.
