Prunus laurocerasus 'Caucasica' is an evergreen laurel valued for its upright habit and strong screening ability. Its elongated, pointed leaves create a dense wall of dark green foliage that provides effective year-round privacy. Growth is more vertical than spreading, allowing hedges to gain height quickly while remaining relatively narrow. In spring, slender spikes of white flowers appear among the leaves, adding a brief seasonal highlight. Robust, adaptable, and easy to maintain, 'Caucasica' is particularly well suited to tall hedges and boundary planting where space is limited but reliable evergreen cover is required.
