Prunus Laurocerasus Etna (‘Anbri’) (PBR) | 12 Lt Pot

A compact and dense evergreen laurel with bronze tinged foliage. Position: full sun, partial shade or shade Soil: moist but well-drained soil, except shallow chalk Rate of growth: average Flowering period: April Hardiness: fully hardy A very compact and dense evergreen laurel with outstanding bronze young leaves in spring, which later become glossy green as they mature. In mid-spring, large spikes of white flowers appear, often followed by red berries, which are harmful if eaten. An exciting hedging plant for a small garden. Garden care: When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole. Not suitable as a boundary hedge if livestock grazes in neighbouring areas. Prune in either spring (check for nesting birds prior to cutting and and delay cut if present). Mature plants can tolerate hard pruning in spring. For best results, although time-consuming, pruning with secateurs is preferable to avoid leaf damage.
