Thumbs down Topiary

Hi, I am a new member to this forum, could anyone tell me where I can purchase a Lingustrum Jonandrum privet plant, ( not a formed topiary) so I can take cuttings and train them myself, all I can see in nurseries are expensive formed plants.

If you don't find a source, I'd ask a nursery to order one for you from
their supplier. DO ask the cost before you actually place an order.
I'd hate to pay "formed" price for an untrimmed plant.

ask someone, nicely, if they would let you
take a few cuttings from an inconspicuous
location.
