About the Privet -
Londense :
The Londense Privet, Ligustrum vulgare lodense,
is a dwarf privet hedge plant. It is very dense and
compact. Ideal for a low hedge. Dark green foliage
with white flowers. If left untrimmed it will reach
a height of 4 feet.
This privet is grown as a hedge plant because it
tolerates shearing and is quite dense. The plant is
densely branched but quite irregular in shape if not
sheared. Privet tolerate most light exposures but is
not as dense in the shade. It is easily transplanted
and grows rapidly, and it retains its leaves into
late fall.
