Add lush, glossy greenery to your landscape with Carolina Cherry Laurel (Prunus caroliniana), a versatile broadleaf evergreen shrub or small tree that thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil (USDA Zones 7–10). With a moderate growth rate, it can be shaped into a dense hedge, privacy screen, or grown into an upright ornamental tree. Its dark green foliage provides year-round cover, while fragrant clusters of white blooms in late winter through spring attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Valued for its resilience, Carolina Cherry Laurel is drought-tolerant once established, deer-resistant, and adaptable to many soil conditions. Perfect for hedging, screening, wildlife-friendly plantings, or as a specimen tree, this hardy evergreen brings structure and natural beauty to any garden. Each plant is grown in the USA and hand-packed with protective wrapping and detailed care instructions by our veteran- and family-owned nursery, and may vary slightly from photos. With our 30-day replacement guarantee, you can order with confidence knowing your plants will arrive healthy and garden-ready.
