Get off to a bit of a quicker start with our five gallon offering...bay leaves in abundance with this one. The Bay Laurel is an evergreen shrub or small tree best known for its fragrant foliage and use as a flavorful seasoning. The bay laurel takes well to clipping, giving you the flexibility to use this plant as a formal hedge or topiary, often times used in matched pairs for symmetrical compositions. The laurel fits very well into small gardens and city courtyards. Can grow to over 10 feet if you let it, but with continuous clipping, size can be maintained much shorter. This evergreen is hardy to USDA zone 8 and all higher zones, and is shipped potted in soil to ensure a healthier start when planted in yard or garden.
