Planting Advice: Bay trees will grow in any well-drained soil in a sunny position, and thrive in containers, as long as they are kept well-watered. Use soil-based compost, such as John Innes No 2, with extra grit added to improve stability of the post and help drainage as bay roots dislike sitting wet. Add controlled-release fertiliser granules to the pot or use a liquid feed every two weeks from mid-spring to late summer. Check plants and repot every two years in spring so that the soil does not become exhausted and stale. Bay can withstand temperatures down to -5°.
