Cultivar: Ligustrum likely Japanese / California Privet Cross – Grown from seed at my parents in Rocklin CA.
Info: These beautiful evergreen perennial hedge plants are drought-hardy, gopher resistant, and bee, bird and butterfly friendly. They grow as a compact hedge when regularly pruned or can be grown as a tree. Privets grow rapidly to heights of 15-20 feet when mature but can easily be trimmed short to keep as a hedge as seen in the photos. Do you see the cell phone tower in the pictures? Nope thats because the privets have formed an exceptional privacy screen!
Special Note: These plants are incredibly hardy. The photos showing them in a white bag was a test when we left them out several months in the shade with completely dry roots and they will come back when watered and planted. We have put them to the test and they seem to almost always survive. If you looking for a hedge plant that will tolerate it all, this is the one!

Gopher resistant – we mean it! Our gophers eat everything, even daffodils which are supposed to repel gophers but they don’t bother our privet plants.
Cold hardy: "Privet is hardy to USDA zone 3, which means it can withstand outdoor temperatures year-round without winter protection." - Google
