View full detailsPortuguese laurel hedging (Prunus lusitanica) is a popular choice where a smart, evergreen hedge is required without the coarse appearance of faster-growing laurel varieties. It offers a dense structure, smaller glossy leaves and a more controlled growth habit.
Portuguese laurel is one of several evergreen laurel hedging options. It is often chosen where appearance and control are prioritised over very fast growth.
If you are still deciding which type of laurel hedge is best for your garden, view the full Laurel Hedging collection to compare alternatives such as Cherry Laurel.
Portuguese laurel can be maintained at a wide range of heights, making it suitable for both boundary hedging and privacy screening:
Regular trimming encourages dense growth and a clean finish.
For hedging, Portuguese laurel is planted closer together than specimen shrubs to achieve a continuous screen. Consistent spacing is key to avoiding gaps as the hedge matures.
Water well during the first growing season, particularly in dry periods. Good establishment is essential for Portuguese laurel to thicken evenly.
Choose Portuguese laurel hedging if you want a more refined alternative to faster-growing laurels, with strong year-round structure and a tidy appearance.
