Bare Root Golden Privet
(Ligustrum ovalifolium 'Aureum')

Ready to plant in November- March, Golden Privet Bare Root hedging is a semi-evergreen plant with green, variegated leaves, decorated with yellow margins.

Golden Privet's creamy-white, summer flowers complement its bright green, variegated leaves, perfectly. The plant is tolerant to pollution, too, making it the ideal choice for both suburban and urban based gardens- though it can grow in pretty much any site, if it's not very wet.̴Ì?

Golden Privet is a little less hardy than Green privet, so it is best to clip to a traditional, dense hedge where possible.̴Ì?

Please note: The leaves on Ligustrum ovalifolium 'Aureum' are harmful if eaten, and as this is a bare root plant, you may notice some defoliation after its planted (but you're not to worry, as it will recover by Spring).̴Ì?

Make sure you plant your Golden Privet as soon as possible after it arrives, as the roots cannot dry out- the plant will not survive.̴Ì?

With an average growth rate, Golden privet can reach an ultimate height of 4m.
  • Growth rate: Average (20-40cm per year)
  • Ideal height: 4m+ Tall
  • Soil type: Normal, chalk, clay
  • Exposure: Inland, exposed
  • Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade
  • Evergreen foliage? Yes

When you receive your Golden Privet Bare Root plant, place it straight into a bucket of water for at least 2 hours. This will ensure the roots are moist before planting. You will also need to continually water the plant throughout its development- but do not let it become waterlogged.̴Ì?

Trim your Golden Privet regularly throughout the growing season- meaning it will need to be done about 2 or 3 times during the Summer. This will encourage a dense, bushy plant development over the years.̴Ì?

Root Types Summary

  • Bare Root
    Bare Root

    Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.

  • Pot Grown
    Pot Grown

    Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.

  • Root Ball
    Root Ball

    Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.

  • Instant Hedging
    Instant Hedging

    Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
