Sizing guide

Prunus laurocerasus 'Otto Luyken' is a compact, evergreen shrub known for its dense, spreading habit and glossy, dark green leaves. In spring, it produces fragrant white flower spikes, followed by small black berries in late summer. This low-growing shrub typically reaches about 1 meter in height and 2 meters in width, making it ideal for hedging, borders, or ground cover.

To grow 'Otto Luyken' in Australia, plant it in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade. It tolerates a range of soil types, including clay and sandy soils. Regular watering is essential during establishment, but once established, it is fairly drought-tolerant. Pruning can be done after flowering to maintain its shape and promote denser growth. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.
