Prunus laur. "Bonaparte (r)"

Prunus laurocerasus 'Bonaparte'® is a modern cultivar of cherry laurel noted for its vibrant bronze-orange new foliage, which contrasts beautifully with the deep green mature leaves. This ornamental trait gives it unique year-round visual interest compared to more traditional green laurels.

With a moderately compact and upright growth habit, it typically reaches 1.5–2.5 meters in height and 1–1.5 meters in width, making it an excellent choice for:

• Ornamental hedging

• Urban landscaping

• Foundation or accent planting

• Containers or formal gardens

‘Bonaparte’® flowers in spring, producing white upright racemes that are pollinator-friendly, followed by small black berries in autumn. It is known for good disease resistance, winter hardiness, and tolerance to urban conditions.

Key Benefits:

• Striking copper-bronze young leaves

• Compact, upright growth – easy to shape and maintain

• Evergreen – year-round foliage

• Hardy and wind/pollution-tolerant

• Great alternative to traditional green laurels

'Bonaparte'® is perfect for gardeners and landscapers looking for a low-maintenance, ornamental evergreen with a splash of color in both formal and informal settings.
