About Privet Hedging Plants

Privet (Ligustrum) hedges are renowned for their rapid growth and affordability, making them an excellent choice for homeowners looking to establish privacy without breaking the bank.

Privet hedges are evergreen, providing a consistent backdrop of lush, green leaves throughout the year. This means your garden remains vibrant and private, even in the colder months.

Privet hedge plants are low-maintenance and can be pruned to suit your desired height and shape. They're resilient, resistant to pests, and are an excellent choice for those with busy schedules.

Whether you're aiming for a formal, structured hedge or a more informal, wild appearance, Privet adapts easily to your landscaping preferences.

We sell three different heights of hedging plants (as supplied), 40/60cm, 60/90cm & 90/120cm.

How to plant a Privet Hedging plants?

Where possible, plant-up hedging plants in well-drained, good-quality soil and/or compost in a sunny or partially shaded space in the garden for best performance.

Trim the roots slightly before planting, as this will encourage healthier growth.

Dig a trenched hole in the ground in the shape of a ‘V’, deep enough for the bare root to sit comfortably so the ‘tide mark’ of the root is level with the ground. This marks the level where the bare root was previously planted before lifting for delivery. We recommend adding Rootgrow Mycorrhizal Fungi at this stage to help the plant establish well.

Ensure the roots are completely covered in soil, then firm the soil around, as water will gather in any remaining air pockets and potentially damage the roots when it freezes.

How far apart do I plant Privet Hedging plants when making a hedge?

For an impressive display when planting multiple hedges, place five per metre. For a thicker hedge, plant seven per metre.
