Planted almost 4 years ago and it has only reached 3 to 4 feet high. Leaves a bit yellow too. Soil is quite damp, clay i think. Is this common? I thought cherry laurel would thrive in pretty much anything.

    Soils probably waterlogged which is the only thing it doesn’t like.

    Horrible ugly things anyway, i’d remove and replace with something nicer and better suited to damp.

    Have you trimmed them at all over the 4 years? Trimming encourages new growth. Without trimming they tend to look like yours.

    They like plenty of water so it won’t be that.
