I am wanting some hedges in my yard. Someone suggested ligustrum. I am
pretty sure this is Privet. Anyone have experience, good or bad, with this
variety? Is this a rhyzome? How tall will it get in the Southeastern U.S.
(Tennessee)?
Don't plant it, please. Contact your agricultural agent or a clued-in
garden store for recommendations of non-invasive native species for your
area.
