Great Plant Pick: Prunus laurocerasus ‘Mount Vernon,’ dwarf English laurel | HeraldNet.com

#cherrylaurel looks pretty but it’s really NOT something you want to eat! It contains a variation of cyanide, and yes I know lots of plants do…don’t start banging on about apricot seeds and hawthorn…people don’t eat apricot stones okay! This frikking plant looks like its cherries on it in the summer and if you don’t know any better you might be tempted to eat them! DON’T! I’ve read some pieces about people eating them but the overwhelming evidence is that you should not! Do don’t be silly! . . .
