Description

Carolina Cherry Laurel (Prunus caroliniana) – Single Trunk Tree Form is a handsome evergreen shade tree valued for its dense canopy and rich, glossy dark green foliage. Trained into a clean, single-trunk standard, it develops a full, rounded crown that provides excellent year-round shade and structure in the landscape. In spring, fragrant white flower clusters emerge, attracting pollinators, followed by small dark fruits that add seasonal interest. Durable and adaptable, Carolina Cherry Laurel tolerates heat, wind, and urban conditions once established. Its evergreen foliage ensures consistent screening and visual presence throughout the year, making it a reliable choice for residential yards, parks, commercial properties, and streetscapes. Low maintenance and versatile, this single-trunk form works beautifully as a shade tree, lawn specimen, or formal landscape accent.

Select a sunny to partially shaded location with well-draining soil. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball and plant at the same depth as it was grown in the container. Backfill and firm the soil gently, then water thoroughly. Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture, keeping it away from the trunk. Ensure enough space for mature height and canopy spread.

Carolina Cherry Laurel Tree thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers fertile, well-draining soil. Water regularly during establishment and moderately once the tree is established. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced tree fertilizer to promote healthy growth. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and remove dead or damaged branches. This tree is drought-tolerant, pest-resistant, and low-maintenance, making it ideal for long-term landscaping.
