Kitchen Bay Tree - 14cm Pot

• Simply to grow fresh leaves
• Grows in most soil conditions
• Fresh leaves appear each spring
• Evergreen for all round interest.

Often seen as shaped plants, heads on a clear stem or a pyramid, this smaller potted bush is all you need to keep you in fresh supply of bay leaves for your kitchen.

This evergreen shrub will grow in most soil conditions but prefers to be out of cold, leaf-scorching winds. Ideally needs to be planted in a container near the front or back door, so the leaves are easily reached with cooking.

New leaves will appear in early Spring and the size can be maintained by a regular light prune through the growing season. Relatively slow growing, it wont overtake the area you have planted it in or grow wild on your kitchen side. If you wish, these plants can be trianed into shapes and are ideal as a starter plant for this style, offering very good value for money, compared to already shaped plants.
