Like any tree or shrub, all depends on how much you trim, water, fertilize etc. including the amount of light.

Skip laurels grow to be 10-18 feet tall and 5-7 feet wide, with a moderate growth rate of roughly 24 inches per year.

If you go back to post #78 on oage 8 you’ll see where these started from in March 2019. These photos here are 4 ½ years later with significant shade during the spring/summer. I fertilize now (10-10-10) as the canopy trees drop their leaves and they get lots if sun, they grow, then sit still when the leaves come back. Eventually we’ll cap them to go wide instead of up, and start to trim up the two canopy trees around them (crape myrtle and zelkova maple). Note the basketball goal for reference.
