You may lose some - but it depends on whether the critters which are munching the leaves carry on doing it when new ones try to grow!

Do you know what's eating them?

Just what eats laurel?????????
I thought that they were toxic to anything!!!!

Hmmmm...now THERE'S a mystery, Mr. MB!!

did anyone have goats near you , I say did because goats will eat them,but they will kill the goats,

just got to see if you have any anrgy neighbers with goats doing the dying fly lol.

Wrexham the home of the Royal Welsh,you will not finde a laurel within a mile of the barricks, because if the goat got out it would finde it and eat it, and that would be the end of the regemental masket, it did happen once and the people of wrexham will not grow itin their gardens,

ow i believe you cliffo honestly but something must be eating the laural and maybe its an insect or a slug etc lol

is there any hardies at the barracks cliffo lol ?

If some of the leaf remains, you may have Laurels with Shot hole disease, this gives them a horrible twisted appearance as irregulare pieces fall from the leaves.. Possibly they have been grown indoors to root them quickly, and they are not frost proof..To see if they are still alive scrape a little piece of the bark and see if it is green underneath, if so they will start up again when the weather improves in Spring.

the regement are not there at the moment NP but even when they are there the hardest is Bille, did you know that the gaot is paid five cigrets a day and his rank is fusalear,and if a room is ready for inspection and he calls and leaves a deposit, the lads in that room are put on a charge, they are proud of the goat, and they hate it,

lol that went right over your head .laural and hardy lol waky waky cliffo

you got me there NP, Ive got my eye on you boy!!

lol
