Cherry Laurels are very hardy, relatively impervious to high winds, tolerant of coastal landscapes and tend to age well. Cherry Laurel also thrives in shade, although it will obviously grow at a slower rate than in full sun.<br \/>\nA Cherry Laurel hedge does need to be well maintained however to prevent it becoming overgrown. It can be vigorously cut back if required. If not pruned in early spring, the Cherry Laurel has white, fragrant flowers in April &amp; May, which are adored by bees, followed by red berries popular with some birds such as black birds.
