North Privet Hedge

Product Description

The North Privet Hedge (Ligustrum x ibolium) is America's fastest growing deciduous hedge! They are typically used in large quantities to create a privacy screen that is absolutely unparalleled. Individually they tend to grow in a pyramidal shape, but with yearly shearing they can take on any shape your imagination can fathom. These hedges grow at an extremely fast rate, gaining as much as 3 feet per year in many cases. They are also extremely cold hardy, and can weather many brutal winters for years to come.

Achieve a thicker hedge by planting two rows of shrubs, zig-zag fashion, in a double-wide trench. 

Planting: Plant in moderately acid to slightly alkaline soil ranging between 6.0 to 8.0 on the pH scale. Most average garden soils fall between a pH range of 6.0 to 7.0.

Watering: Young privets will require some water to establish roots. Once established, most varieties are exceptionally drought tolerant. Like most ornamental plants, privet will not tolerate wet soil conditions like standing water. Such conditions can lead to root rot and other harmful plant diseases. 

Fertilizer: Fertilize in the spring with a slow-release shrub & tree food, preferably one that contains Sulfur and/or Iron. 

Pruning: Light pruning can be performed any time of year. Shearing can be performed any time of year, up to two months prior to the average first frost date in your area. Heavy pruning to reduce the size (height/width) or to achieve tree-form should be done while dormant. 

Spacing: 1-3'

Got my order and put them in the ground immediately. 5 days later buds all over them. Pretty happy with my purchase

My hedges came a little over a month after being ordered. The plants look great and I planted them a few days ago. I did attempt to both email and call Green Thumb gardens and never received a response but the plants look healthy and we’re reasonably priced. I can’t wait to see how they grow

Looks good

Plants were securely packaged. Ordered 50 and received a few spares which was a nice bonus. Roots appeared to have a nice color and look healthy. Packed with water retaining crystals so no drying during shipping.

The plants arrived looking healthy and ready to plant. They are heeled in now because of the unrelenting rain in our area.

High Quality Privets

This is my second order of the North Privet Hedges. My first order was to ensure the plants would make it through the winter. My hardiness zone is 6. The privets not only made it through the winter, but are now thriving. I was so impressed by the first order, I ordered more this year to use a fence screen. Very high quality plants with very robust root systems when they arrive by mail. The packaging of the plants is the best I've encountered. Excellent job!
