Prunus laurocerasus 'Rotundifolia', commonly known as the Cherry Laurel, is the most popularplanted hedging that there is. It's very easy to grow and maintain, known for their large glossy leaves, but they can also provide small, white, fragrant blooms in the spring followed by 'Cherry-like' red fruits that later turn black. A fast growing hedge plant, they reach their ultimate height of 4-8 metres in 5-10 years with a spread of 2.5-4 metres.
