    Here's a little project I struggled to find information on.

    How much soil do I need to grow laurels in to create a hedge.

    Well, I built these planters out of railway sleepers, filled bottom with a couple of pebbles then lined with a weed netting to retain soil.

    Working great after 2 years, probably 6ft high now. The fencel panels are 6ft high, if it helps you picture heights.

    Hi,

    I am planning to do exactly similar project on my patio. Do you mind sharing the details? Specially:
    What was the height, width and depth of your pots?
    How tall were there laurels when you planted them (from ground to top excluding root)?
    How tall are they after 1 year and 2 year?
    How frequently for you water them?
    Any special tips during planting?

    Thanks.
