Prunus laurocerasus 'Chestnut Hill' ~ Chestnut Hill Laurel high-light Pinus palustrisChestnut Hill Laurel is a tight, compact evergreen shrub that forms a mound of dark green willow like foliage. Its clusters of fragrant white flowers bloom in spring and are followed by small black drupes in summer. In warmer climates, flowers best in part sun and rich moist well drained soils. Chestnut Hill is highly resistant to common prunus diseases and is salt tolerant. Note: All parts of the plant are highly toxic to humans and pets if ingested.
