The Otto Luyken Laurel is a dwarf form of the regular laurel, ideal for a smaller specimen or hedge. It will grow 3 to 4 feet tall and may eventually reach 10 feet if not pruned and will spread 6 to 8 feet wide. It has much smaller leaves than the common laurel. If left unpruned it will have attractive upright spikes of fragrant flowers in spring.
