Bay (Laurus nobilis), also known as bay laurel or the bay tree, is an evergreen shrub with aromatic leaves, known as bay leaves. Laurus nobilis one of the oldest shrubs in cultivation.

It’s an essential foliage plant for herb gardens – bay leaves can be used in a variety of dishes, including soups and stews and even ice cream, and are the main ingredient in a ‘bouquet garni’.

The bay, which was in the garden until last year, was accompanied by scale insects and eventually gave up.
This year, I have researched for prevention.  So, ready for planting.

I took a peek at various gardening shops, but the seedlings were not sold. I wonder if it will be avoided because it will be a big tree.
After all, I ordered online. Expected to arrive next weekend. As the rainy season comes, we plan to grow it in pots for a while.
