5 Privet Hedge Plants – Ligustrum Live Bare Root Plants

5 Privet Hedge Plants – Ligustrum Live Bare Root Plants | Fast Growing Privacy Screen | Evergreen Hedge | White Flowering Landscape Shrubs

Create a dense, attractive privacy screen with this set of 5 live Privet Hedge plants (Ligustrum). These vigorous landscape plants are popular for hedges, property borders, screening, and foundation plantings because they respond well to regular pruning and can develop into a thick wall of foliage.

You will receive 5 seed-grown live plants with established, healthy root systems. These are not fresh cuttings. The plants were grown to approximately one-gallon nursery-pot size before preparation for shipping and will arrive bare root without nursery pots. Taller growth may be trimmed as necessary for secure packaging.

When regularly pruned, Privet can be maintained as a compact formal or informal hedge. If allowed to grow naturally, established plants can develop into large shrubs or small trees reaching approximately 15–20 feet depending on genetics, climate, pruning, and growing conditions. Mature plants can also produce clusters of small white flowers that attract visiting pollinators.

Please note that these seed-grown plants are described as likely having Japanese/California Privet parentage, so individual plants may naturally vary and should not be treated as a named cultivar.
