Schip laurel (Skip laurel, or sometimes called Cherry Laurel) is a great small-to-mid sized privacy barrier choice with multiple size options. It can grow up to 16″ per year and can be sheared/ pruned to shape it nicely. These shrubs love full sun and can take half shade.
The Schip Laurel can create a beautiful solid privacy hedge of varying heights depending on the height selected, and the shearing or pruning done to them. More privacy can mean more security for your property. Planting these now at the correct spacing can create that instant peace-of-mind and privacy that everyone wants.
We recommend planting medium size specimens every 3′ for tight hedge shrubs that are just starting to touch. Ultimately unless sheared back, these plants can potentially grow up to 8’+ high, but that takes years and any spreading will take some time as well.

The Helen Taft Cherry tree is a fantastic flowering cherry tree variety named after a female trailblazer in the early 1900's who also happened to be the wife of President Howard Taft. She was one of the key people who helped create the Cherry Blossom arboretum along the Potomac river bordering Washington DC and Virginia. This specimen is a outstanding flowering tree specimen, and would look great in a grouping, or in a tree line! It is a deciduous upright tree with a spreading crown, reaching both a height and width of 18' x 20'+ after 25 years of growth. We find that this tree is very hardy with minimal problems with insects and disease. It is most comparable to its female parent, Prunus x yedoensis Yoshino, except for its slightly larger size and noticeably large pink flowers. This tree is a winner, and we are quite impressed with its many positive characteristics. Highly recommended.
