Privet - Amur North River
The Most Poplar Hedge Shrub in the United States The Amur North River Privet is a fast growing, deciduous shrub that will adapt to whatever shape you chose for it. One would make a pleasing specimen plant, but several planted as a hedge would be outstanding. What you’ll love most about it is that you can prune it to any size or shape and it will quickly fit your needs. You don’t have to wait for a specific time to prune it either. Snip and trim whenever your creative gardening urges flow, and your Privet’s vigorous, hardy nature will easily adapt. Unpruned, your Privet will grow up to 15 feet tall with an equal spread. It’s a multi-stemmed, dense growing shrub with oblong, leaves that attain a subtle yellow hue in autumn. Those leaves will even persist until most other plants have already lost their leaves for winter. The tiny, oblong black drupes that develop in the fall are an added benefit, and will tend to hang on into the winter for your birds to enjoy. In the spring, two inch long panicles of white flowers will seem to spring forth in all directions on hardy, erect stems. Butterflies and other pollinators will find this a special treat, enhancing your enjoyment of their spring presence. Your Amur North River Privet isn’t just an attractive and adaptable plant; it’s also winter hardy, drought tolerant, transplants easily and is long lived. In fact, it’s so hardy that it thrives in almost any conditions. It doesn’t even require pruning, but if you prune it a couple times through the summer, it will grow denser and even more compact. The Amur North River Privet is obviously a highly beneficial shrub for the home landscape, whether left to grow naturally as a lovely shrub, or pruned to a fit a particular purpose. It’s easy to see why it’s the most popular hedge plant in America today. * Easy to shape hedge plant* Spring flowers and fall fruit* Adaptable
