LIGUSTRUM—PRIVET 
Ligustrum ovalifolium, 9'-10' CALIFORNIA PRIVET 
The most popular hedge plant on account of its beauty, 
adaptability, and low cost. 
To find the exact number wanted, measure the space 
where it is to be planted and multiply the number of 
feet by two. They should be planted 3 inches deeper 
than they stood in the nursery row. Set the plants 6 
inches apart in the row. Dip the roots in water before 
planting. After plants are set, cut them down to 4 inches 
from the surface of the ground. This will cause a thick 
new growth to start and is very essential for a beautiful 
hedge. 
When cutting, each time allow about 1 to 2 inches 
above where it was cut before, until you get the height 
desired 
Two-year—cut back and well branched. Will give imme- 
diate effect.
