Pot Grown Laurel 'Caucasica'
(Prunus laurocerasus 'Caucasica')

Prunus laurocerasus ‰ۡÌÝÌáCaucasica‰ۡó» is relatively fast-growing with lush evergreen foliage that is very similar to the Common Cherry Laurel.

We've dedicated time and care into growing your pot grown plant, so it arrives looking stunningly new and healthy.

The Laurel Caucasica is ideal for privacy screening as it stands out and maintains its lovely dark-green foliage colour all year-round. Caucasica will also add some lovely wildlife to any garden, as in Spring, the white-coloured, fragrant flowers attract bees, and the following red berries welcome birds. It is a low growing, evergreen hedge, that can make a brilliant low-maintenance addition to your garden.

The Prunus laurocerasus ‰ۡÌÝÌáCaucasica‰ۡó» is a rather hardy plant that is tolerant of drought and shade, making it ideal for problem sites.

  • Growth height: Average (20-40cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 2.5m+ Tall
  • Soil Type: Normal, Wet
  • Exposure: Exposed, Inland, Sheltered
  • Aspect: Full shade, Sun
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes

As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.

Laurel Caucasica‰ۡó»s trimming must be done during both Winter and Spring seasons. Please note, if you have a large bush, ensure there are no birds nesting before you go ahead with pruning.

  1. Prepare the soil by mixing in some compost. Dig the hole- this will have to be about twice the width of the root system, but the same depth.
  2. Remove the plant from its pot by placing one hand on the base of the plant, and the other at the bottom of the pot. Wriggle the pot away gently.
  3. Untangle the roots a little as they may be clumped together.
  4. Place the plant into the hole, ensuring the base of the stem is level with the surface of the soil. Follow this with backfilling the hole with your soil mix, and patting down lightly to secure.
  5. When you're done, thoroughly water the plant. Ensure you regularly water throughout its first year, as the plant needs plenty to be able to settle down, recover, and establish.

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
