The 'Primavera' or "Conventional" almond is a late blooming, early producing variety. It consistently produces crops of sweet, soft-shelled nuts that are easily harvested and shelled. Quickly reaches anywhere from 15-30' tall and wide. Will need other varieties planted nearby for cross-pollination.
The 'Schipkaensis' laurel is a large, fast-growing variety that is often used for privacy screening or large hedging. It will reach 12-15' tall and 6-8' wide, but can be pruned to a smaller size. White, bottlebrush blooms appear in spring and attract beneficial pollinators.
