    I doubt that laurel will need any fertilizer.
    The most balanced of the above is BFB, so use that if you think they need it

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Would some compost simply suffice?

    That's always the best method for any shrub - just add organic matter  :)
    Laurels don't need food if the soil's decent - they need moisture more than anything.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
