Description
Wax Leaf Privet (Ligustrum japonicum)
Wax Leaf Privet: Ligustrum japonicum, or the wax leaf privet, is a cold-hardy, fast-growing evergreen shrub that enjoys wide popularity across most USDA-growing regions in the United States.
Wax leaf privet grows in sun or partial shade. It prefers fertile and consistently moist soil.
They are a Japanese native species; however, they are one of the most widely used hedge plants in the United States. Gardeners love them for their year-long greenery, two to feet of growth per season, and relative lack of care.
People who love the classic looks of precision-trimmed shrubs or hedges tend to adore this species. After a thorough pruning, it recovers quickly and looks fresh, full, and lovely faster than most can imagine.
Ligustrum japonicum Has Several Common Names
Depending on what region in the United States you live in, you might know the Ligustrum japonicum the other common names, such as the following:
- Curly Leaf Ligustrum
- Japanese Privet
- Privet
- Wax-leaf Privet
The Evergreen Good Looks of Wax Leaf Privet
Wax leaf privet can reach a mature height of up to twelve feet tall with a six-foot width. Bright to dark green, glossy leaves oppose each other on brown stems. The leaf shape is a broad oval that grows up to four inches long.
During the spring, the wax leaf privet displays cross-shaped, white or cream flowers with four or five petals each. They are small in size--under an inch across--but abundant and lovely.
The flowers produce tiny flat berries that measure under a quarter inch. While they are not valuable for humans, your local wildlife, including birds and squirrels, will happily clean them as they drop. They provide excellent nutrition for wildlife, and you will enjoy watching your backyard visitors enjoy their windfall.
