yellow flowers, and dark purplish-black fruits. The plant's leaves are used as seasoning in cooking and are best harvested in the morning when the fragrance oils are strongest. Bay Laurel can also be grown as an ornamental or topiary. Plant trees in an area where they are protected from wind to prevent cold winter winds from damaging foliage.
