Sorry about that. I have had privet for years and. yes, it does tend to
spread. However, I have lots of room and I intend to put it on the
northwest edge of my woods.

I have a small shack there that becomes highly visible in winter when the
trees and shrubs lose their leaves. I prefer to hide it.

Would someone answer my question please?

Around here it is a declared noxious weed, we have poisoning parties in
the
spring to stop it taking over the landscape. Oh well to each his own.
