Ligustrum Rotundifolium

Ligustrum Rotundifolium Details

Ligustrum japonicum Rotundifolium, commonly known as Japanese Privet, is a popular shrub grown for its form and foliage. It grows as a small, compact, rounded bush and carries glossy, dark green leaves which have a unique curl. Clusters of cream-coloured flowers are borne in summer and are a lovely feature. This evergreen typically grows to 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide and can be trimmed as necessary. Best performance with this plant is achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of moderate frost, dry periods, and coastal conditions but will benefit from protection while establishing. Ligustrum Rotundifolium is often clipped into hedge, added to a mixed planting, maintained in a container, or used to provide architectural interest.
