This holiday season, purchase a beautiful mini-bay tree to add a dash of colour and holiday cheer to your home. Bay (also called bay laurel) has long been a symbol of prosperity, fame, and stature from Biblical times through to the Greek, Roman, and even Chinese culture.

Bay is a popular spice, used both fresh or dried and adds flavour to soups, stews, and many other savoury dishes. It is a popular ornamental houseplant, can been used to fashion wreaths, or can be grown out into a larger tree/shrub.

Bay trees are easy to care for and easy to grow indoors over the winter and outdoors during the summer.
