Description
Prunus laurocerasus Sofia is a refined evergreen shrub with a naturally dense, rounded habit and elegant dark green foliage. Its short internodes and excellent branching create a full, uniform appearance without the need for constant pruning. The narrow, glossy leaves add texture that works beautifully in both formal and informal landscapes.
Its compact growth makes it exceptionally versatile, performing equally well as a hedge, topiary specimen, landscape planting, or container feature. In spring, Sofia produces clusters of white flowers that attract bees and butterflies, bringing seasonal interest and supporting pollinators.
