California Privet (T) © 
Ligustrum ovalifolium 
Of all hedge plants the California Privet is 
the most popular and it is planted more often 
than all other hedge plants combined. It is of 
free growth and succeeds under the most ad- 
verse conditions of soil and location. Even 
under the dense shade of trees it will still make 
a creditable showing. Those who wish to give 
their hedge a specific form should prune the 
plants at regular intervals during the growing 
season. Strong plants, size 23-3 ft., $1.25 
per doz.; $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 1000.

late into the winter.
