Mountain Laurel

Description

In the early spring of Texas, the air is filled with the intoxicating aroma of the sturdy Mountain Laurel tree. Native to Texas and Northern Mexico, their fragrant violet-blue blooms are reminiscent of artificial grape flavoring and are a favorite of hummingbirds and bees. They are evergreens so they keep their beautiful dark green leaves all year. Mountain Laurels make a great addition to your landscaping whether it be a patio, yard or outdoor courtyards.

Although slow-growing, Mountain Laurel is one of the best trees for any landscape. They can be shaped to resemble a shrub or allow them to grow into a small size tree. A beautiful, informal hedge can be created by planting a row of Texas Mountain Laurel and letting the shrubs develop without shearing. The dense evergreen foliage can also be used to screen an unattractive view. They prefer full sun and are extremely drought tolerant so once established, very little watering is required.
