Make entrances and patios feel tailor-made with Volcano Cherry Laurel Topiary. A tight, single-ball canopy sits atop a clean trunk, showcasing glossy deep-green foliage. New flushes emerge a fiery red before maturing, adding built-in seasonal contrast. Evergreen and compact, it stays crisp with light touch-ups.

Stage one in a statement pot or mirror the look with a matching pair by the door. Spring brings small white clusters for a subtle accent, while the sculpted form supplies four-season structure with minimal effort.

Volcano Cherry Laurel Topiary Care

Site in full sun to part shade; 4–8 hours of light delivers the best color, with afternoon shade helpful in hotter zones. Plant in fertile, well-drained soil, pH 6.0–7.5. Water regularly the first season; afterward, water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Apply a 2–3 inch mulch layer, keeping it off the trunk.

Feed in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer; a light midsummer refresh supports new growth. Shape after the spring flush and again midseason with light, frequent trims. Hardy in USDA zones 6–9. Watch for scale and shot-hole; maintain airflow and avoid overhead watering. Note: all parts are toxic if ingested—keep away from pets and livestock.

Volcano Cherry Laurel Topiary Spacing

Reserve a 3–4 foot diameter around the crown for airflow and clearance. For paired entry accents, space 3–5 feet apart and keep 2–3 feet from walls or walkways. For a formal run along a path, plant 4–5 feet on center. In containers, choose a 16–20 inch wide pot at least 14 inches deep with drainage; add gravel for weight in windy spots and stake the trunk its first season if breezy.
