Prunus laurocerasus 'Marbled White' | Marbled White Cherry Laurel

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Prunus laurocerasus 'Marbled White' produces upright clusters of small white flowers in mid spring, the blooms opening along short racemes and releasing a light fragrance. The blossoms are followed by small dark berries that mature later in the season. Broad, glossy leaves cover the stems, each leaf marbled with irregular splashes of creamy white across deep green surfaces, creating a bold, patterned canopy that remains colorful throughout the year.

This cultivar traces its heritage to Prunus laurocerasus native to southeastern Europe and western Asia. In gardens it provides evergreen structure for hedges, borders, and screening where the variegated foliage adds year-round interest.
