Product Information

Common Privet

Common Privet

Stockcode:

Privet is a widely grown evergreen/semi evergreen, meaning that it is generally evergreen but may lose some or all of its leaves in very hard winters although it shoots right back again in Spring. Privet has rich green leaves and forms creamy white flowers in July, which are attractive to butterflies and birds, but are generally clipped away. Privet is almost indestructible once established and a very popular choice. It is quite fast growing (approx 30cm pa) and should be trimmed a couple of times during the summer to encourage the formation of a dense, formal garden hedge, resistant to pollution and therefore popular in urban and suburban gardens. Privet will grow well virtually anywhere other than wet sites and is suitable for coastal situations although it may defoliate a bit in Winter near the coast - view even more options for plants for exposed sites here. Its leaves and flowers are harmful if eaten.

We also have Golden Privet and Wild Privet.

Hedges Direct Ltd

Great service, price and quality. I bought a pallet of Euonymous Green Spire (40 plants @ 50 cm tall) from hedgingplantsdirect.co.uk and I'm very happy with the prompt service and quality. They only took a couple of days to arrive - brilliantly packaged on a pallet, wrapped in cardboard and cellophane. All the notes that I had made on the order about tricky access for the delivery lorry were relayed to the delivery company who followed the instructions to the letter. I got the plants out and they look like they have been very well looked after. They are exactly as expected. I've bought plants from other companies in the past and it's been something of a disappointment - but I am very happy with hedgingplantsdirect and will definitely order again.
