Japanese Laurel

Low-maintenance evergreen shrub. Coping well with dry shade, urban pollution and salt-laden air, the spotted, dark green, pointed leaves make an excellent, dense hedge for an urban or coastal site. Small clusters of insiginificant, red-purple flowers are followed by bright red berries on female plants. Use it at the back of a mixed border to provide a foil for other, more decorative plants.To promote bushy growth prune straggly branches in spring. Apply a generous 5-7cm mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant after pruning.
