Prunus lusitanica 'Myrtifolia' Portuguese Laurel - Clear Stem 70cm - Height 140cm - 30lt
£360.00
Unit price perEstimated delivery between May 17 and May 19.
Prunus lusitanica 'Myrtifolia' half standard is an elegant, evergreen choice for adding height and structure to a garden without taking up excessive ground space. Formed with a clear stem and a neatly clipped rounded crown, it creates a classic “lollipop” shape that works beautifully in formal layouts, flanking pathways, doorways, or terraces. The glossy, narrow dark green leaves contrast attractively with its rich burgundy stems, providing year-round interest.
In late spring to early summer, small white flower spikes may appear, adding subtle seasonal detail and attracting pollinators. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is well suited to a wide range of soil types, provided they are well drained. Once established, it is relatively drought tolerant and copes well in sheltered coastal and urban settings.
This half standard responds very well to pruning, making it easy to maintain a crisp, architectural shape. Ideal for contemporary and traditional gardens alike, it offers evergreen screening at head height while allowing planting beneath, maximising both structure and planting potential.
