200mm Bay Tree - Laurus nobilis

I am the Bay Tree, my aromatic foliage has been used as a culinary herb, either fresh or dried for flavouring a range of dishes since Roman times. I naturally have an upright columnar habit and adapt well to pruning which makes me a great feature plant or screening hedge. I thrive both in pots and planted in the ground. I produce masses of fluffy yellow blooms from late winter into spring. I am incredibly hardy, tolerating frost, dry conditions, exposed locations and coastal conditions. If you have a problem it ants in your pantry place some of my fresh leaves in the problem area and the ants will soon be gone.
