  • laurel soil conditions
    are laurels suitable for a area that is prone to a high water table the area is a old river bed with clay and silt beneath the soil thanks

      Thank you for your message, and please find some advice for your potential laurel hedge.

      If the water table is high – no problem – they do use a lot of water. With the correct preparation before planting – ie working of the existing soil and break up the clay/slit to allow water percolation.  Silt is usually of a high nutrient value so they will love that!

      If they are sitting in water or if the river bed floods regularly – then i am concerned – not much will survive a lengthy root submersion, this may involve some drainage work to divert the water away from the hedge..... however it doesn’t sound like this is the case?

      I hope this helps?  Please come back to me if you need any further information.

      Warren.
