Cherry Laurels are blooming now

The cherry laurel trees (Prunus caroliniana) are in bloom all over the county now. These trees can grow 25-40 feet tall with a 15-25 feet wide. For those of you who might have lost plants this winter, the cherry laurel tree is hardy from zones 8-10A so you won't need to worry about winter freezes killing this tree. This is also a great tree to plant to attract birds to your yard. For more information check out our bulletin at the link below.
