Description

Laurus Nobilis or 'Bay Tree' are fully hardy evergreen tree-like shrubs. They can be grown as hedges or like these ones here as standard trees. They can be trimmed and pruned very easily to keep them neat and tidy. They can also produce a white flower in the spring as the plant matures.

Bay trees can grow quite large however these will remain this size with over time the trunk thickening and the head growing larger and bushier.

The bay leaf can also be used in cooking or as a garnish.
