"California Privet, or Oval Leaf Privet, is infamous for its use as a privacy hedge throughout the estates of the Hamptons. It's speedy growth and dense branching can be tightly pruned to create artistic hedges that can not be seen through. A very tough plant, California Privet can handle Full-Sun to Part-Shade as well as windy and salty conditions, making it a perfect choice for the coastal areas of Long Island. It is important to fertilize and prune your privet hedge twice a year for optimal growth and performance. Due to high-demand, there has been a shortage of privet throughout the Northeast since 2015.\n \nAdditional Information:\n\n\n\nLatin Name:\nLigustrum ovalifolium\n\n\nPlant Type:\nShrub\n\n\nShrub Type:\nDeciduous\n\n\nExposure:\nFull Sun to Part Shade\n\n\nMature Height:\n10-12 Feet\n\n\nMature Width:\n6-8 Feet\n\n\nRecommended Spacing:\n2 Ft Apart\n\n\nGrowth Rate:\nFast\n\n\nHardiness Zone:\nZone 5-8\n\n\nHabit:\n\n\n\nWater Needs:\nAverage\n\n\nMaintenance:\nMedium\n\n\nPruning Time:\nTwice a year\n\n\nAdditional attribute:\n\n\n\n\nDrought Tolerate\n\n\n\nShowy, Fragrant Flowers\n\n\nLandscape Uses:\n\n\n\n\nBorder, Hedge\n\n\n\n \nHeavy or 'Hvy' trees/shrubs/arborvitae is the distinction between the fullness and width of the plant.
