About California Bay Laurel

The California Bay Laurel (Umbellularia californica) is a marvelous, multi-talented tree. It can be large or small, fast growing (4 feet per year), or slow (4 inches per year). It can make a marvelous individual specimen, or can be closely planted in rows and trimmed into a formal hedge. As an individual, this tree may strike an imposing silhouette in the landscape at over 140 feet tall with a monumental trunk over 10 feet across, or it may become a charming and diminutive “kitchen tree,” living happily in a decorative container, scenting the patio with its spicy aroma and waiting to contribute the flavor of its piquant leaves to the next gourmet sauce or hearty stew.

Umbellularia californica
is famous throughout its native range in California and Southern Oregon, where it goes by many names: Bay Laurel, Myrtlewood, Pepperwood, Bay Tree, Spice Tree, Pacific Myrtle, California Laurel, Cinnamon Bush, Peppernut tree, and several others. According to the USDA Forest Service, this tree species is “the most valued and best publicized hardwood species in the Western United States.” It’s an evergreen with leathery, spear-shaped, glossy green leaves, which are laden with aromatic oils.

In addition to its varied physical forms, culinary uses, great adaptability to diverse climates, soils, temperature, and light conditions, Bay Laurel is highly valued for the beauty of its wood. “Myrtlewood,” as it’s often called, features a rich, honey color, and is often turned into polished bowls, wall clocks, statuary, and other decorative items. In culinary use, Umbellularia californica has a stronger potency than the traditionally used European Bay Tree (Laurus nobilis), so less is required in most recipes calling for “bay leaves.” Native cultures used this wonderful tree extensively not only for its wood, but also for food, medicine, preservative, and as a pest repellent. The oldest reported Umbellularia californica is a 1,200 year old specimen in Northern California.

Perfect girls tennis shoes
Size: 7 Wide Big Kid, Color: Fuchsia
These shoes have been great for my daughter! They’re lightweight, comfortable, and supportive enough for everyday running around, school, and sports activities. My daughter said they felt comfortable right away with no break in time needed. The bright pink color is really cute in person, and the shoes seem well made and durable so far. They fit true to size and have good cushioning without feeling bulky or heavy.

Stylish and comfortable
Size: 5 Wide Big Kid, Color: Fuchsia
I got these for my 9 year old who needed new sneakers. She loves all things pink and instantly loved the look of these shoes. They are extremely breathable which is great for running around and airing out those sweaty feet. The fact that they are wide is perfect for her as well; so many sneakers end up being narrow and confining. They fit great and look great and both mom and daughter are very happy with these!

Comfortable, durable, affordable...what more could you want? Lol
These fit well and were comfortable for my son...and they lasted until he outgrew them. That's saying a lot for a 9-10 year old boy. Lol. They are a great deal for active kids.
