Description: This was a tiny seedling I 'liberated' from a garden I worked in near Newick in Sussex more than ten years ago, where they grew as weeds (they're native around here). Often, in the wild the Spurge Laurel, as it's known locally, can be a bit straggly, growing out from under holly and beech, but these plants were neat dark glossy evergreens and I couldn't resist taking one.
