Three main aspects we all look for when choosing plants are reliability, versatility and vigour, and this variety of common Privet provides just that, and more. Ligustrum vulgare ?Atrovirens? is frost hardy and can be trained to form a semi-evergreen hedge or used on its own as a free standing shrub. However you decide to grow it, the shiny green oval leaves are guaranteed to make a perfect dark backdrop for feature plants in the border. In midsummer small white flowers appear, followed by glossy black fruits in autumn. But best of all, no matter how harsh the weather might be, Ligustrum will continue to flourish to its fullest potential. Height and spread: 200cm (78?).
