WAX LEAF PRIVET 5gal

Let me introduce you to the Wax Leaf Privet (Ligustrum lucidum), a dependable and attractive shrub that thrives beautifully in our Prescott climate. Imagine a dense wall of glossy, dark green leaves providing you with both beauty and seclusion.

Wax Leaf Privets are known for their relatively fast growth and ability to be shaped and maintained at various sizes, typically ranging from 10 to 15 feet tall if left untrimmed, but easily kept shorter with pruning. They are quite adaptable to different light conditions, from full sun to partial shade, making them a versatile choice for various spots in your yard. Plus, they are known to be fairly deer-resistant, which is always a bonus for our local gardens! 

To give your Wax Leaf Privet a strong start and encourage dense, healthy growth, be sure to plant it with Watters Premium Mulch. This will help the soil retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep the root zone happy. For vibrant foliage and vigorous growth, feed your Privet in the spring and again in early summer with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food. This balanced nutrition will ensure you have a thriving, beautiful privacy screen for years to come.
