LIGUSTRUM, SUWANEE RIVER. Plant Patent No. 1402. 
We are growers of Suwanee River Ligustrum on Quihoui 
root. Suwanee River is a new dwarf patented Privet, intro- 
duced by Wight Nurseries in fall, 1954. This brand-new 
variety is slow enough in growth to be planted around a mod- 
ern ranch-type home, and yet grows fast enough that it can 
sell at a reasonable price. 
Suwanee River is a hybrid, the parents being Ligustrwm 
lucidum (Wax-leaf Privet) and Ligustrum coriaceum. The 
foliage is a deep lustrous green, smaller than Wax Ligustrum, 
and slightly twisted. The nodes are close together, so that the 
foliage almost completely hides the woody stems. It appears 
to be immune from attacks of white fly and other insects. It 
should be an excellent addition to the broad-leaved evergreens 
for the Southeast, the Southwest, and the Pacific Cosat. It is 
also being tested in other regions to determine its hardiness. 
We hope to have a good supply of Suwanee River for fall 
and winter sales, in 12 to 18 in. and 18 to 24 in. grades, and 
shall welcome your inquiries concerning this interesting in- 
troduction.
