Greenfinity Laurel is a dwarf evergreen shrub with an upright mounding habit and lush glossed dark green foliage that emerges lime green. Upright panicle clusters of fragrant creamy white flowers bloom in spring and are followed by small black drupes in summer. In warmer climates, flowers best in part sun and rich moist well-drained soils.
