National Plant Network 1 gal. Wax Leaf Ligustrum (40-Pack)

National Plant Network's grower approved selections take the guesswork out of gardening. Wax Leaf Ligustrum, also commonly known as Japanese Privet, is an exceptionally durable and dense evergreen shrub prized for its lustrous, deep green foliage and versatile growth habit. This robust plant features thick, leathery leaves with a high gloss sheen that reflects light beautifully throughout the year, producing large clusters of fragrant creamy white flowers in late spring that give way to small dark berries for local songbirds. Thanks to its dense branching and steady growth rate, it is a premier choice for creating living privacy walls, thick property boundaries, or neighborhood windbreaks. It responds beautifully to pruning and shearing, allowing you to easily maintain it as a crisp formal hedge or even train it into a small multi trunk patio tree. Remarkably adaptable, this shrub thrives in a variety of soil types and stands up well to urban conditions, coastal salt air, and intense summer heat.
