British-Grown Evergreens: Our new Laurel stock

At King & Co we take pride in offering british-grown evergreen hedging stock, including Cherry and Portuguese laurel!

Laurel (Cherry and Portuguese)

We stock British-grown Cherry and Portuguese laurel in both tree and shrub form.

Screening Trees. Our laurel standards have clear stems around 1.8m tall. You can plant them in a row to create a screen above a 6ft fence or as a standalone tree to block unwanted views. Cherry laurel is fast-growing so it needs pruning twice a year to stay neat and dense. Portuguese laurel is slower growing but keeps its shape with little effort (it often needs just one trim per year).

We also stock 1/2 standard Portuguese laurel. These trees have shorter stems, around 90–110cm tall. Ideal for creating a raised hedge above a low wall or fence, they also work well as specimen trees to add height and interest in smaller gardens.

Hedging plants. These shrubs are branch from ground level and form a natural screen from the base up. They work well for defining borders.

Take a look at this video for more information on Laurel hedging.

Shopping online

You can buy trees, hedging, shrubs and topiary online by browsing our website.
If you do not see a plant or size that is suitable for you then please call as we stock a wide variety of plants in our tree nursery. It’s worth noting that many other websites sell other people’s stock (i.e. they act as an agent) so you cannot view the products at their own site. At King & Co, all of our advertised plants are available for viewing at our tree nursery in Rayne, near Braintree, situated just over an hours drive out of London.

Our knowledgeable and experienced tree nursery staff are always contactable via phone on 01376 340469 or if you have any questions regarding any of our trees or accessories.

If you cannot see what you require on our website, please complete the enquiry form. We will give it our urgent attention and will get back to you shortly with a solution that meets your needs.
