Commonly Asked Questions
Does bay leaf come back every year?
Yes, bay laurel is a perennial herb, meaning it will come back every year. In warmer climates, it can be a bush or tree in the landscape, growing a little taller each year.
Can you grow bay leaves in the UK?
Absolutely! Laurus nobilis, one of the oldest shrubs in cultivation, was introduced to British gardens as early as 1650. It's ideal for herb gardens and versatile in the kitchen for soups, stews, and more.
Where do bay leaves grow best?
Bay leaves grow best in a warm, sheltered site, protected from strong winds, with full sun or light shade. They need free-draining soil that doesn’t get waterlogged.
Can I use bay leaves straight from the tree?
Yes, bay leaves can be used both fresh and dried. They add a fragrant flavour to soups, stews, and various dishes when used in cooking.
Should I cover my bay tree in winter?
Bay trees are frost-hardy but can suffer damage from extreme cold or wind. It's advisable to move the plant to a sheltered area during winter or protect it with horticultural fleece.
