What flowers/foliage to plant under common cherry laurel hedge?

I don't think anything will grow under it as it will be too dry and shaded. Can you post some pictures? May be you could put some membrane down and fill the gaps with stones or slate chippings? Or possibly some log roll to hide the gap?

Vinca minor. Beware though it might spread via roots so it might need some maintenance to control.


Alternative is to go to try some ajuga. I'd prioritise stuff that is evergreen perhaps and has interesting foilage colour for interest. Flowers are great but most stuff that does well in shade typically doesn't have great flowers or they are fleeting.
