Laurus Nobilis 120cm Bay Laurel ‘Pyramid’ Tree – 10L Pot

Laurus nobilis, commonly known as bay laurel, is a classic evergreen tree prized for its aromatic, glossy green leaves and elegant pyramid form, making it both a stylish garden feature and a practical culinary plant.

Key Features

  • Evergreen foliage with lustrous, dark green leaves all year round

  • Classic pyramid-shaped topiary, ideal for formal or contemporary gardens

  • Culinary bay leaves perfect for flavouring soups, stews and sauces

  • Suitable for pots or planting in the ground

  • Thrives in sunny or lightly shaded, sheltered positions

  • Fully hardy with winter protection in exposed or cold areas

Product Description

The Laurus Nobilis Pyramid Tree is a timeless choice for adding structure and year-round greenery to patios, entrances and borders. Its naturally dense growth responds well to clipping, allowing it to maintain a crisp, architectural silhouette that works beautifully in both modern and traditional settings.

Beyond its ornamental value, this bay laurel is also highly practical. The aromatic leaves can be harvested fresh or dried and used throughout the year in the kitchen, making it a favourite for gardeners who enjoy growing edible plants.

Best planted in a sheltered spot to protect the leaves from wind scorch, Laurus nobilis performs well in containers or free-draining garden soil. With the right care, it develops into a handsome, long-lived evergreen feature with excellent visual and functional appeal.
