Privet, the Living Fence 

Plant 10 to 12 in. apart. Prune back to within 4 to 6 in. of 
the ground to make them branch low and thickly. The sec- 
ond spring, if not sufficiently thick, again prune back, a little 
higher. After that prune to keep the hedge the height and 
width desired, usually about three times a year. Avoid se- 
vere pruning after the middle of August. 
Privet, Amur River North; Ligustrum amurense 
A rapid growing Privet of upright habit, taking the place 
of California as it is reliably hardy here. Very fragrant small 
white flowers like tiny lilacs in late May, followed by black 
berries; seldom blooms when pruned as a hedge.
