English Laurel
Prunus laurocerasus
[PROO-nus law-ro-SER-ay-sus]
I was loathe to plant this after hating and ripping out all the other laurels in our garden, but I gave up trying to find an evergreen shrub that would grow in the shady spot up against the back fence. So I did it. Will I regret it? Probably, unless we move house in the next 3 years!
