Cherry Laurel (Prunus laurocerasus)
A hardy evergreen member of the plum genus, this is a good, less common hedging choice with white flowers on racemes appearing in early summer followed by small dark cherries. It is generally fine for all soil conditions, with the exception of waterlogged soil, and is fairly slow-growing so although the hedge will take a while to establish, it low maintenance once it does.
