Originating from the Mediterranean, laurels are broadleaved evergreen bushes commonly used as hedges, borders and privacy screens. Left to grow naturally, the bushes grow 8 to 20 feet tall, depending on the variety. Whether grown in a garden, the hedges require frequent trimming and pruning to maintain shape and size, and control spread. Trim your laurel hedge to form a square top so it looks neat, tidy and enhances the appeal of the landscape.
