Laurocerasus lusitanica (Portuguese Laurel) 
A native of Spain and Portugal, Lusitania being the ancient name of the 
region almost coincident with Portugal. Grows into a tree in the land of its 
nativity, but farther north reaches the proportions of a fine shrub. Unexcelled 
among broad leaved evergreens for hedges. The older plants are magnificent 
when covered with a mass of spikes, 6 inches long, of white, fragrant blos- 
soms in the spring. Dark green, glossy foliage, large leaves. A hardy strong 
growing plant which stands shearing well. A beautiful shrub especially when 
planted with other evergreens.
