Flattened heads of pinkish-white flowers, opening from carmine-pink buds from December to April, followed by dark blue-black fruit. This popular form of laurustinus is denser and more compact than the species. Thriving in sun or shade, the shiny, dark green foliage provides an excellent evergreen backdrop for ornamental and feature plants. 'Eve Price' makes an excellent and award winning choice for a more compact evergreen hedge with wildife and multi-season appeal.

When planting, incorporate some well-rotted compost or manure in the planting hole and a scoop of mycorrhizal fungi to aid root establishment. Firm the soil around the plant and water thoroughly. Water shrubs regularly in the first year after planting and in dry periods. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant.
