LIGUSTRUM. PRIVET 



A GROUP of ornamental shrubs, including, besides the California Privet, some of the most "desirable 

 plants. The Privets are not particular as to soil, and they grow rapidly in open places or beneath 

 the shade of trees. In shrubbery borders and masses, their good qualities can be appreciated, as 

 well as in the hedges by which they are best known. They are seldom attacked by insects; withstand 

 shearing, and can be kept at any height or clipped into artificial shapes. 



Ligustrum Amurense. Amoor Privet. (L) 

 More hardy than the California Privet. Erect 

 habit; small leaves, that are dark, lustrous green, 

 and remain until long after snow comes. On this 

 account, if for no other reason they are desirable. 

 Fine for hedges, mass plantings and general use.

Ligustrum Regelianum 



var. Regelianum. (S) Similar to the above; 

 branches more dense and twiggy; they droop 

 gracefully and give this variety a distinctly attrac- 

 tive appearance. In Autumn the foliage turns a 

 dark red. This plant is unexcelled for shrubbery 

 borders and masses, park plantings and hedges.

California Privet 



L. ovalifolium. (L) Widely known as a hedge 

 plant; it is a vigorous grower anywhere, endures 

 the unnatural conditions of cities, and is one of 

 the best shrubs for seaside planting. The half- 

 evergreen, glossy foliage and pure white flowers in 

 July make it an ornamental shrub that is generally 

 useful. Not reliably hardy north of Boston.

L. Siberica. (M) A form of doubtful nomen- 

 clature, but one of the hardiest kinds. It is similar 

 in most respects, to the others, and useful in much 

 the same ways. We urge its more general use in 

 colder climates and places where an inexpensive 

 shrub is wanted to endure hardships.
