Among the most used evergreen hedges we find the cherry laurel. These hedges are tall, dense and with beautiful glossy green foliage. It is an evergreen shrub native to Asia and Europe and belonging to the Rosaceae family. The genus to which this plant belongs is Prunus, which has about 400 different species. The cherry laurel is widely used for the creation of garden or terrace hedges and borders. The cherry laurel hedge is quite tall, even more than a meter, and with very dense and dense foliage. These features make it ideal for screening and decorating public and private spaces. In fact, with Il Lauroceraso, natural barriers or hedges can be created in any outdoor space. The cherry laurel hedge tends to grow in height and this gives it a certain covering, shielding and shading power. The shrub of which it is composed produces dense leaves of a glossy and intense green color. The cherry laurel hedge blooms in spring, when it produces small white apical flowers gathered in clusters or panicles. In summer, however, the fruits, small blackish berries ripen.

Remember that the young hedge should be watered every two weeks. The cherry laurel hedge only needs adequate pruning. When the plant is young, you don't have to prune it, just remove the dry leaves. These must be promptly eliminated from the ground because they are a receptacle for phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi that can affect the entire hedge. The remains of pruning can be burned or used to create compost, a natural fertilizer that is excellent for nourishing garden plants and more. The adult cherry laurel hedge should be pruned at least twice a year: in March and August.
