Description
The new Sunshine Ligustrum from the Southern Living Plant Collection completely reinvents the traditional Privet! It's coveted for its vibrant golden-yellow, evergreen foliage. This is a true landscaping treasure, and once you know it, you'll recognize it wherever you see it. New growth emerges as a delicate lime green, which does a phenomenal job of awakening the landscape from its winter slumber. This foliage will continuously intensify as spring turns into summer, at which point they will be a gleaming shade of gold. The more sunlight they get, the better. More sun produces more yellow leaves, while less sun results in more yellow-green foliage. This Ligustrum proves itself to be incredibly versatile. Its compact and upright form makes for a tremendous natural hedge, no pruning required! At maturity, it reaches only 3-4 wide by 3-6 tall. Consequently, it also lends itself to trimming, if that's more your speed. Shape this beauty into uniform hedges or small topiaries. Furthermore, the Sunshine's petite, oval leaves are perfect for shaping into hard edges. Try a mass planting for a truly impressive display! Thrives in USDA Zones 7-10 Grows to a mature size of 48-72 in. wide by 60-84 in. high Evergreen shrub for year round interest Requires full sun and low maintenance Trimmed at times when shipped to promote plant health Water before planting, plant in full sun, dig hole 3x the width of pot, back-fill and plant 1-2 above soil level, water and add more soil if needed, mulch plants, fertilize in early spring Petite, oval leaves are perfect for shaping into hard edges New growth emerges as a delicate lime green Privet coveted for its vibrant golden-yellow, evergreen foliage Foliage will continuously intensify as spring turns into summer, at which point they will be a gleaming shade of gold More sun produces more yellow leaves, while less sun results in more yellow-green foliage
