Waxleaf privet (Ligustrum japonicum ‘Texanum’) has long been a favorite choice among varieties of privets, excellent as a hedge, mass planting or in a container. This is a top selection for topiary use, responding well to pruning and shaping, from pyramid to poodle forms, so get your foliage-shaping game on if desired. Displays a profusion of fragrant white blooms in spring. Can also be trained as a tree, perhaps for your patio. As you might have figured out from the name, waxleaf privet has waxy leaves. They’re also thick, round and glossy green above and whitish underneath. Attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies. These evergreen plants live and thrive happily when grown near a gardenia plant, butterfly bush, jasmine plant, weeping willow tree, japanese maple tree, magnolia tree, or wisteria tree. You can also grow these bushes near other shrubs and plants, like rose bushes, hydrangea plants, and many popular fast growing plants. The flowering garden shrubs even look great when grown alongside practically any fruit tree, such as an avocado tree, lime tree, meyer lemon tree, apple tree, persimmon tree, cherry tree, guava tree, mango tree, peach tree, and more. You’ll enjoy attractive, year-round foliage that is sure to enhance your curb appeal no matter what.
