I am fed up withh the unavailablity of bay leaves in the shops so I want to
have my own tree.

I live in SE sheffield. It is not particularly cold here - quite
sheltered. I do not have
agreenhouse or conservatory but the garage has a large clear part to the
roof (ivy grows INSIDE very
well) if shelter is needed in winter.

Is it easy to care fof?

No shelter needed.

Winters well outside. We have a number of young coming along.

are you intending to buy a mature plant or grow from a shoot.

Initially I would like a mature one.
